CROCODILE -- Nominated for a BIFA!

Ohna_Gaelle-crocodile_BIFA_noms.jpg

Gaëlle and I (and the rest of the team) are unbelievably thrilled to have been nominated for a BIFA. We are so grateful for the support the film has had, and the amount of incredibly positive feedback we've received. It has been a pleasure to share the film so far and wide already and it feels like the trajectory is picking up more and more momentum. This month alone, we are juggling 'print traffic' between eight overlapping festivals - who knew November was such a popular month!

The announcements were made today at the St Martin's Hotel in Covent Garden and it was great to find ourselves amongst such fabulous people and in competition against such other great shorts! I can't wait for the ceremony in December. I had such an amazing time back in 2010 when Daniel Mulloy and I had the pleasure to be there with Baby. And they are sponsored by MOËT it means lots of champagne celebrations, and you can never have too much of that - or at least so says Antonio Piazza (fellow fabulous filmmaker (maker of Salvo) & winner of much champagne)!!

Keeping Rosy, '71, Catch Me Daddy, The Goob, Lilting - many of the teams from Dinard (X&Y as well...). Lovely to chat to Steve Reeves & Jared Harris who has agreed to star in the next film...

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…
