Autumn Projects

Hello all!
I realise its been a while, I've had a varied few weeks with little time for film making.
Actually, that's a lie. I wanted a bit of a break. But now, its time to kick ass!

Sadly, at least two projects, including the much touted Easter Egg, now have to wait until next year as the summer weather (what we had of it) has now past.
Still, the crisp, lovely Autumn weather and the dark sinister weather of Winter are useful too, and so I present to you projects which (hopefully) will be done within the year...

1) Plastic Vultures - Finally finishing it!
2) Limbo - A ghostly film about a supernatural detective
3) Culture - An ambitious PR man regrets joining a pharmaseutical company with secrets
4) Inbetweenland - My documentary about suburbia is due for another round of filming

And anything else I can think of to make.

Make way for film!

There's A Whole Lot Still To Do

Okay, peeplings.

It seems like the screening may have to be pushed forward a week to the 7th of August thanks to work (groan) but fear not, things are still good.

Plastic Vultures Trailer? Done.

Inbetweenland Trailer? Done.

Judge N Jury? Done.

Freeman Michael Brothers Property Law Firm? Done

After Ate? Finally shooting has finished thanks to Mr. Chris, and this is well on the way and looking spiffy despite cardboard props

Easter Egg? Still not filmed, dammit!

Others? Waiting.

In the meanwhilst, I will give you some screen shots of 'film poem' Eden, which should be at the screening too. By the way, I need voice actors to help me with this one, so if you're up for it and available that would be ace ^_^

I like pretty things.

Make way for film!

Perils of Ice Cream

Hello everybody!

Well, things are hotting up...slightly. The tyranny of a 9-5 makes it hard to make films (although of course not having one would make it impossible to actually fund them) but there are some spaces.

I put together teaser trailers for Inbetweenland and Plastic Vultures (like I totally said I would)...but lookee here! I'm not the only one making teaser trailers...

Heh. Sexes.

This is from my buddy The Cake Maker, from a play what he wrote. The footage was shot by me, over one hectic day in the historical Buxton. I must say the black and white makes it very nice indeed, a good choice that man.
Starring are some other wonderful friends of mine who are both stars.

Meanwhile, I am trying to find a way of shooting an ice cream cone in an interesting way.
It's a living, innit?

Make way for film!

The Space Between

Hello all!

As The Half Year Screening approaches (37 days and counting now), I am getting down to some serious film work. This weekend will be devoted to all manner of prop and costume making, and discussing with my friend/studio landlady Seema about arrangements for it.

I have also been revisiting and my as yet unfinished documentary Inbetweenland, a poetic-academic piece about suburbia and my home back home.

I am putting together a trailer for it for the Screening and those who have been kind enough to help me so far...the plan is to finish it in August/September this year.

Here are some screenshots of beautiful suburbia...
