Sitting in Edit 1 at the Phoenix Media Centre, for the Two Short Nights selecting, we waded through heap… Continue

Martin Lejeune How to get music for your film?

There are a number of composers out there who will work for less than their usual fee if they find a project different or exciting, as with actors, VFX artists or anyone else giving their time. They enjoy what they do and want to see their names on good films. I asked David… Continue

Hang on. Let’s back up. After a day of travel, I’ve been sleeping on a sofa at the offices of Energia productions in Tampere, Finland. Not very much - mind you - due to the two hour time difference. Everyone’s been setting up equipment like it’s nin… Continue
