The Pond shortlisted for Fujishorts

It was good news to hear that The Pond was shortlisted for the Fujifilm shorts competition. They must have a pretty extensive mailing list as I received many nice messages of congratulations. I guess it's unlikely we'll win, but it's still nice to be shortlisted. The print has been sent off to Barcelona and California last week, so it's still making its way around the world... Fingers crossed it might win a few more prizes.

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

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…
