Two years of teaching at Kingston University, two years now my students have nominated me for a teaching award 🥰 They are a good bunch. My favourite things I've taught this year...
- The science of 16mm celluloid
- Writing fiction
- Directing actors
- The business of film
After a busy week, finally have a chance to reflect on hitting our Indiegogo💡 goal a week before the deadline. So many people have contributed, including many we don't know personally. It gives me so much hope for the impact this project can have!🤞igg.me/at/green-grass
So many #directors think #producers are just there for logistics. Producers are there for so much more; research trips, advocacy work, late night conversations, 4am coffee, and stupid jokes no-one else will get. For all the incredible work producers do, thank you, I see you 🙌
Starting this week with a cold dip into the sea! Yesterday, my producer and I joined Project Seagrass to help prepare seagrass for transferring to meadows on the Isle of Wight. So far so good! enjoying learning how to care for zostera ahead of our short film!

Having secured public funding (from a place I cannot yet say) for our short film, my #producer and I thought we would try to help break down barriers and teach other #directors and #actors how we did it ahead of the #bfinetwork film fund! This Thursday: essexfilmcollective.com/events/how-to-…
Next week I'll be speaking at nextstepsolent.com/film-industry/ at Solent University, Southampton Open to the public! Come along 😃 and share if you get the chance!
Can't quite believe we hit more than £2600 in our first two days of our Indiegogo💡 crowdfunder 🤯 and ended up on the homepage! Already 37% of the way to our £7000 target. Beginning to feel like this ambitious/inclusive project is actually happening! indiegogo.com/projects/green…
