The Undead Sun

US montage1.png

We finished shooting the Undead Sun on Friday a new film by Jane and Louise Wilson which I produced through Film and Video Umbrella. It's a film commissioned by the Imperial War Museum and will form part of their WWI centenary commemorations exhibitions.

Great to have the old Toxic Camera team back together again Teddy Testar, Daniel Brough and Dean Steadman on camera, Daniel Goddard editing, Dave Morgan on 10×8s... And lovely to discover Nicholas Mortimer on production design and model making, Chloe Gross on costumes and Martin Kloud on lights, Joshua Dadson as camera assistant and DIT and genius with the zoom recorder too. We had a great cast too thanks to fabulous fvu production assistant Alix Taylor who found them (Scott Wickes and David Wayman), as well as helping on the production side while at the same time planning and organising her wedding and a film festival in November!

BIFA Crocodile and Baby

BIFA has had a great idea in this period of Coronavirus lockdown - they have made all the BIFA nominated and winner shorts over the past 10 years available to view for FREE. How lovely to see BABY and CROCODILE up there and among such an exciting batch of films - great to be able to watch them all.

Films in LFF2019

This year my highlight of the festival was going to NFT1 to listen to an interview with Céline Sciamma, fabulously talented French writer director of Water Lilies, Tomboy, Girlhood (writer of the animated My Life as a Courgette) and in this year’s festival - her period piece Portrait of a Lady on Fire.

First Time Directors

I have been thinking about the stigma and the draw surrounding this title. All my feature projects - and I guess my shorts too in terms of “feature status” - are pretty much with first time directors. Sometimes I long to be at the stage where I can be working with more established directors – albeit them also being the first-timers I’m working with, only them (and me) having MADE that first feature!!! –. Get me out of perpetual development please…
