The ReD Door...
...is the place called where I work now, and it is kind of a digital workshop in an international school in Hong Kong. We are three "experts" working there and we have to support -and educate- students and teachers in using soft- and hardware, in the curriculum, and as you can see is it a room filled with lots of digital stuff. We even have a meeting table to plan the work. Normally it looks a bit empty and I was wondering what the silly plant did alone in the middle, until one day where we had one of our meetings and everyone turned up with their modern life "Diary's", then I realized; the plant got it own kind of "pot", and suddenly it also looked quite nice with the plant as center for all the open laptop lids.
I'm a TV and film guy, so I do the videoing stuff, and mainly in the last couple of months I've been producing film for and about the school, and I'm just about to finish a duple DVD set, containing the theater performance the school did in corporation with an Australian theater company.
The performance was "War of the worlds" and we filmed each performance with 3 cameras, so now we're going to release the DVD with all three shows and a 20 minutes "Making of".
It's nice work doing this, although doing all the editing alone can make you feel a bit lonely. Sometimes there is students who dare enter the red door and start doing their own film stuff, but in fact it has been a bit less than I'd expected. But the reason is obvious; film work takes time and a lot of work. 
Some students have found their way to this digital playground called the "ReD Door".
