Last night saw the screening of Leo Poloniecki’s short film ‘Running Late’ at BAFTA. The film went down a storm with the 200+ friends, family and industry movers and shakers, as did the cold beers on what was reportedly the hottest day of the year.
Co-directed by Leo and Joel Anderson, Zebra Crossing handled all post-production on the film, from the offline edit to the telecine grade at TKone. Big thanks to John Penn at Dubbs and Alf Penn at TKone for all their help.
Last night saw the first public screening of Nic Franklin’s latest short film, Room 32.
Played to a full house of cast, crew and invited guests at the Rex Cinema, Piccadilly the film which is inspired by the Jim Morrison poem Room 32 was well received. It’s an emotional piece where the main character is a schizophrenic battling with his inner demons. The lead role is played superbly by Mark Dymond, (James Bond – Die Another Day; Blackball; Dungeons & Dragons; Northanger Abbey). Thanks go to everyone involved.
Also screened for the first time was the recently completed Music Promo for the fantastic new London Band ‘The Standards’. Filmed in two separate locations, we hired a full size Circus tent and performers during the summer of 07, completing filming in November at Big Sky studios in London’s Kings Cross. The band are performing to their single ‘Needless to Say’ in a ghoulish early 1900’s surrounding.
Directed by Nic Franklin and produced by Luke Hammersley, big thanks go to the band and all involved, but especially to DoP Joel Anderson and compositors Marc Khachfe and Siobhan Bowers who worked incredibly hard to produce such fantastic results. The promo has been entered into various film festivals around the world… watch this space.
