Chance Encounters

My short film Apt. has now got a UK premiere at Manchester’s very own Festival of Fantastic films – It will be showing on Saturday October 22nd. The yearly horror film festival are renowned for having great guests attending and this year is no exception!

They have some great actors and directors of the golden age of the British horror genre as well as Bobby Rhodes of  Demons, Demons 2 fame – you know it’s going to be a blast!

On top of this I was wonderfully surprised to find Apt. is shortlisted for the Delta Award (the very same award we were nominated for with Chainmail in 2007!) it’s great to see both Apt. and The Timeslip getting into some great festivals this year! Keep checking for more updates on festivals this year and next!

I would like to make a deeply humbled and grateful thanks to Frederic Tiberghien for the fantastic job he did on my head shots. A truly magnificent photographer; focused, talented, warm and friendly and a really great personality to work with. If anyone is looking to get some terrific photos done, Head shots, Fashion, etc; Frederic is your man. I loved what he did with my head shots and the re-touches were a furthermore original artistic touch which certainly brought character to the styles of people i was portraying for the shoot.

Below is his website, current blog (with info on how our photo shoot went down) and Head shots where you’ll find my mug. Lol!

Please do check out and see for yourselves!

The Day I Tried to Live went on to win ‘Best Guerrilla Film – The Xristos Award’ at the International Action on Film Festival held in California. It has been shown at a number of film festivals including ‘The Zero Film Festival’ and ‘Portobello Film Festival’ in London, and is currently still showing.

Propeller4film has to offer the best emerging talent from the UK and Europe to the web! We are happy to be a part of their collection of films.

The Day I Tried to Live brief Synopsis:
A space pod crashes from the sky and a body washes up; so begins a tale of one man’s journey of discovery. Yet, a tangible hope and a search to find another of his kind turns to desperation.

Making of Pictures:

Richard captures the right shot.
