BLAINES GOT BIFA-D

We are super chuffed and positively thrilled that we’ve been given a BIFA nomination for our short slice of funny, “0507“. The official announcement was on Monday October 31st at St. Martins Lane in London and now we can shout it from the chilly rooftops. WE HAVE BEEN NOMINATED FOR A BRITISH INDEPENDENT FILM AWARD! Of course it goes without saying that we have to thank our brilliant actors Cariad Lloyd and Fraser Millward. You’ll probably hear us saying this a few more times at least…

Aesthetica Short Film Festival

We’re proud to announce that new comedy short, “The Maestro” has been shortlisted as a finalist for the Aesthetica Short Film Festival! It will be screening in York from 3rd till 6th November and we hope you can make it along to support the festival. Let’s hope this is the first of many screenings for Beethoven!

Hallo Panda On Your TV

Hallo Panda will be hitting the early hours of your televisual screen on 2nd November at 2:45am. Before you ask it’s on Channel 4. So for all to see! (If you happen to be up at that unpanda-ly hour). If you don’t fancy staying up/getting up that ridiculously early, those with fancy recordable devices can set it to record. Then you can watch the furry fun at any time you wish, if your recording material records it. Niceness.

New Empress Film Quiz and Short Film Screening Night

On October 16th at The Shortwave Cinema in Bermondsey, our comedy short “0507” will be screening alongside some other beautifully shot nuggets as part of the the first collaboration between Shortwave Cinema, New Empress Magazine and Double Crossed Films. More details can be seen here on that there Facebook and tickets are a measly £3. Oh, and it’s a quiz too! For film geeks. So whip out all the books anyone’s ever bought you because you like film and read up, then book your ticket here.

Austin Film Festival 2011

We are super chuffed, thrilled and ecstatic that “0507” has been selected to be a part of this year’s programme at the Austin Film Festival. The festival doubles up as a conference and the two overlap to provide a hotly-tipped event running from October 20th till 27th. We’ll be screening as part of the Shorts 8 program on October 22nd at 7:15pm and October 26th at 9:30pm at the Hideout Theater. Panelists this year include Chuck Palahniuk, Shane Black, Scott Rosenberg and many more. Exciting, right? HELL YEAH.
