ALL THE UPDATES
Lots and lots going on with both Creative Talent Connections and my own corporate video work including editing weddings, shooting music videos and working on corporate promotional videos.
Our Creative Talent Connections Podcast, which, features interviews with TV and film industry professionals discussing their careers and offering advice to fellow freelancers, can now be downloaded from iTunes! You can find them by clicking here. Our guests so far have included Greg Hemphill (Still Game), Kirsty Strain (Burnistoun), Anne Nicholson (freelance editor), David West (actor) and Simon Weir (River City, Highroad).

Scott Forrest and I have recorded a mini-podcast featuring news from the Glasgow Film Festival and interviews from writers Tom Macrae (Doctor Who, Threesome) and James Moran (Doctor Who, Cockneys Vs Zombies) discussing their careers. Our next podcast will be recorded on the 20th of April and we'll be speaking to producer/director Michael Hines (Still Game, River City) and Colin McCredie (Taggart and River City)
Our supernatural drama series "Bloodline", which, follows the adventures of Kate, Adam and Charles, the chosen Three who are charged with supernatural abilities to protect humankind against ancient Scottish mythological creatures who are being harvested by the mysterious Victoria Campbell, managed to crowd-fund enough money to pay for the 6 day shoot for our pilot episode. We've now completed the pilot episode and wrote out an 8-part series arc and pitching it to production companies, so fingers crossed!
AND as part of our Creative Talent Connections group we successfully crowd-funded over £2000 so we can shoot our new supernatural rom-com short film, "One Year Later", where David (Rhys Teare-Williams) is planning to pull off the perfect proposal to his perfect woman, Katy (April Pearson) with the help of his wise-cracking, self-confessed playboy older brother, Steven (Mark Wood), who just happens to be dead and is either a figment of David's imagination or is a real ghost. Simon Weir guest stars as Doctor Evans. We've locked down locations including Skin in Glasgow City Centre and the Tall Ship at the Riverside Museum. Our shoot takes place on the 27th and 28th of April and we'll be submitting it to major film festivals to promote our talented cast and crew and Scotland as a filming location.
Mark Wood, Rhys Teare-Williams and Skins star April Pearson will star in "One Year Later" this year.
I cannot wait to get back on the set again of a short film and work with the brilliant team who joined me on Bloodline and Cameron Stone. It's another step closer to my dream of writing and producing my own TV show one day...
I leave you with my most recent work, Cameron Stone, a mockumentary we shot in 48 hours for the Glasgow 48 hour film challenge 2012, which I hope to be taking part in again this year! The rules were it had to have the line "It is our little secret" with the prop of a map and the character Ray or Ramona Lewis who had to be a captain. Enjoy!
