'Last Post'

Ray's short film 'Last Post' which was shot last May, was shown at the 'Keswick Film Festival' this February,  a Mr John Hurt was present.

This film as well as some of the other Co-op members films are on the Film Makers Co-op site on You tube.


The POW

'The POW'  a film written and directed by Co-op member John Hamlett was shown at the X1V international detective film festival in Moscow. John flew over there himself to experience the event and came home with the 'Viewers choice' award. The film has also been shown at several festivals over here, picking up 'Best narrative short' at the Pennine Film Festival.
This is a brilliant achievement for John and a very proud moment for the Co-op.

Queen's legs

On Friday 21st September, the TV pilot hopeful 'The Queen's legs' had it's premier at The Storey in Lancaster.
Most of the cast and crew were there but unfortunately a filming clash meant some couldn't make it.
The pilot was written and produced by Cecilly Holland a long time member of the co-op.
We wish Cec good luck in getting this on the telly.

Exquisite corpse

The Exquisite corpse group is now down to 6 people and 6 scripts. After what seems like an eternity, filming has finally begun.
Most of the locations have been found but the biggest problem seems to be acquiring actors/actresses. More links need to be made with actor groups for future projects.
