Tunnels and light, probably a metaphor…

This is the shortest update I can do because, why not, we’re all busy anyway…

2021

Finished our commission for Unsuitable (pilot and treatment).
Enrolled into the MA in Directing for ALRA North.
Placed in the top 100 of BBC Writers Room Long List.
Caught Covid 19 but was asymptomatic, a blessing really.
Started to plan a short film called Northern Monkey. Put it on the back burner because of its scale. Reworking it as a web series.
Had a trip to London for our 1-year wedding anniversary and spent too much money.

Began a new term at ALRA, and it was quite crap.
Left ALRA North and terminated my MA because the course felt completely Mickey Mouse.
School closed its doors due to near bankruptcy a few months after (now opened again under a new brand, and new MGMT, previous culprits however have been employed back). Most students are back but a few got properly short-changed. Investigations are likely to follow.
Began working on a short film I wrote titled Soup, Sandwich Soufflé.
Reached out to my old games industry friends to seek any opportunities to study Mo-Cap and Voice Direction.
Continue casting for the short film (80% roles complete).
Source further locations.
Finalize budget.
Wait to see if Mo-Cap and Voice Direction avenues are possible.
See where Reign Supreme can place in competitions throughout the year. Feedback has been glowing.
Go to Italy for a week and enjoy the hell out of my birthday.
Oh and…
