You've all seen the Morph Moments over on the Mpora site, and i'm sure they'll still appear, but as kinda announced yesterday Morph will be taking over main filming duties at Blueprint. And as also mentioned I, Neil Chester, will be leaving the building.
I would like to thank all at Blueprint and everyone within the industry scattered around the world that I had the pleasure of working with. I hope to see you all out skating soon. Cheers!
