Cape Town Premiere of onematchstick, The Movie
The Premiere of the onematchstick movie at Primi Piatti, Cavendish in Cape Town, was another fun evening following on from the Johannesburg Premiere.
We had a fascinating mix of friends arrive! Mongezi was our MC and had the crowd laughing a lot. Adin, the cashless dude, shared about his 7 months of living without money, and some of his plans that he’ll be actioning over the next 4 and a bit years. He launched his competitions to win a years free hosting for websites, and we should hear who the winners are soon.
Eran of Springleap.com also shared some thoughts around the whole matchstick trading idea.
A BIG Thank You to all of those who attended the Premieres! It was loads of fun, and both Adin and I appreciate your support and encouragement!

The artist Tuesday Houston came too and gave me the two prints she is trading for two T-shirts each, and I even received some more three-way trade offers for books and coaching sessions!
After the movie and my little speech, there was lots of mingling and exchanging contact details. And then a few of us ended up at Banana Jam for a bit of an after party!A BIG Thank You to all of those who attended the Premieres! It was loads of fun, and both Adin and I appreciate your support and encouragement!
Another evening with the 'matchstick girl and the cashless dude
I'm off to Cape Town on Tuesday- It's going to be a packed week in the Mother city, and I hope to get some quiet time on the beach and to also catch up with some special friends, and make some new ones.
If you'd like to meet up then get in touch! You can come and meet Adin van Ryneveld - the No Money Man- and I on Thursday night at the Primi Piatti, Cavendish for the onematchstick movie première, where Adin will be the guest speaker, and Mongezi the MC. Join the event on facebook here.
It's going to be a fun evening if the Joburg première is anything to go by, so do come along and say hi, and be one of the first to see the onematchstick movie.
Otherwise you'll see me at the Silicon Cape event on Tuesday night, or the Netweb Event on Wednesday, and at some point I hope to have a yummy milkshake at Fire and Ice. I've got no plans yet for the weekend, before I fly back up to Joburg on Sunday, other than to spend some time with my niece and family.
So it'll be great to meet up if you're in Cape Town: Get in touch!

The onematchstick movie Update
Filming of the onematchstick movie is in full swing!
I met up with the rockstars at Missing Link a few weeks ago and got introduced to the multi-talented Jarrod: my producer, editor and camera man. The team talked me through their ideas which I loved, and without giving too much away, here's a sneak peak behind the scenes of the onematchstick Movie.
Eran Eyal, one of the guys who I am busy trading the T-shirts with, was in Jozi at the right time, and we grabbed the opportunity to shoot a scene or two with him. He fitted us in his busy schedule and we met up at Primi Piatti Rosebank. Springleap T-shirts were all over the place, and we had loads of fun!
I had my first taste of what it must be like to be a movie star- and it's turned out to be not as easy as I imagined. We worked on the script right there and then, and thank goodness my friend Gen came along for the fun, as she helped me get the script just right (she also took a lot of the photo's- Thanks Gen!). There's a lot to tell about my story, but only a short amount of time to get what I want to say across, so we had to choose the words wisely. And then I had to remember them! From the excitement of it being T-shirt Trade day - the day I started trading the T-shirts - and the first film shoot, plus the fact that I had only got a few hours of sleep, we had a good laugh at my few tongue-tied moments!
Eran's a fascinating guy- besides the passion he has for Springleap and their Tee's, he has a passion for life that's extraordinary and catchy. He left his mark on the movie with some of his creative, in the moment ideas and we even learnt a bit about martial arts after the shoot!
So for our first shoot, it was a great hour or so with lots of laughs, and we even got to hear Jarrod say "that's a wrap people!"
