HEY ALL!

So, I’ve not had a chance to make a video about this yet, so I thought I’d write a quick post about it.

Last night I attended the Virgin Media Shorts awards ceremony. Months ago I entered my film “PJ, TINY PLANET EXPLORER” into a competition, one of the biggest film competitions in the country, and after a lot of waiting, and support and votes from you guys, I walked away with the highly prestigious Peoples Choice Award. Not only that but I got to meet the highly respected judging panel, I met a bunch of really awesome, talented filmmakers and had a fantastic night.

I have to say, thank you. To everyone single person who tweeted the video, voted via facebook or even just watched my film, your constant support is making me a better filmmaker, and a better person. I feel I can finally call myself a filmmaker, I made a film which is now getting shown in cinemas. It feels incredible. So tremendously incredible. Scary? Of course. Sometimes I feel way out of my league, but the more I push myself, the more exciting life becomes.

So what’s next? I think I have to make a £5,000 film. Yep. You’ll certainly be the first to see it.

I love telling stories so much, so thank you all for being there to hear them.

spinny.

for anyone who thinks video making is a one man job in a bedroom, I bring to you some behind the scenes stills of what a usual kickthepj video looks like.

I don’t always know how it will exactly turn out until we start shooting. as you can see, at one point we were debating to black out the background completely, the costume kept changing etc.

On this particular shoot, I had Sophie and Louis on make-up and costume, also set design. Jamie was cinematographer/camera/lighting, and James who has managed avoid being in these pictures was amending the script and adding in new lines.

also keep in mind this was a very simple shoot, when compared to other things we have made. the chef comes to mind as a difficult and lengthy one.

I just wanted to put into perspective what exactly goes on behind the camera, because although I can put on a silly voice and pretend to be a clown, I’d be nothing without my crew of buddies.

also this was hella fun, so get some friends together and start making some films, yo!

oh and the final product for anyone who wants to watch it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vh7EI5WlZuI

I hope you cool cats have seen my new video! show EVERYONE you know. I’m serious. everyone.
