Absolutely delighted to announce that ‘The Voorman Problem’ has just been nominated for an Oscar in the Best Live Action Short Category.
‘The Voorman Problem’
‘I am Sami’ is a UK & Kurdish co-production, shot on location in Kurdistan – Northern Iraq. The film is Directed by Kae Bahar and Produced by Jackie Sheppard and Mark Blaney of Footprint Films.
Filming out in Kurdistan was an incredible experience and such an amazing location to shoot. The film included some classic military set pieces, a Humvee rolling into a packed market place and a night incursion sequence with fully equipped American soldiers. We shot on the Red Epic with a set of Red Pro Primes.
On location at Southport Pleasureland filming for the latest single from The Feeling – ‘Feels like Rain’.
Shooting actor Jon Campling, Directed by LJ Hopkinson and Produced by Taylor James. Shot on the Arri Alexa with Zeiss Super Speeds.
We’ve just wrapped on the UK location shoot for ‘The Light’, a short film, set in 1950′s America that centres around the McCarthy Red Scare era. To give the film a vintage feel we decided to pay homage to some 1950′s filmmaking techniques by using rear projection for the car sequence. We shot on the Arri Alexa with Ultra Primes. Directed by Si Cookson and Produced by Luke Walton & Jackie Sheppard of Reel Issues Films. We are due to shoot the end sequence of the film, out in the Tabernas Desert – Spain, next month.
Just completed photography for WW1 Drama / Documentary project ‘Time Bleeds’, which was shot down in Folkestone. Directed by Sam Supple and Produced by Debra McGee for Viola Films.
