    Cop's Top Tips - Cannes

    Yep, you have it down to a tee there gepetto. I always meet up with a bunch of friends there from London and Europe, and a few Americans. It's the only place we all get together at once. The Welsh party is a good one, it's pretty down to Earth. Sometimes you can sit there with your head in your...

    A friend of mine, Alexia Muinos, a Spanish film director has just made her first feature. She said that actually the support in Spain has become much better across all stages of film production. I think this is because of directives from the EU who are trying to get countries back up and running...

    Cop's Top Tips - Cannes

    First half was poor, second half was good I'd say. I feel sorry for the people who had to leave before it got better.

    Cop's Top Tips - Cannes

    Will have to have a head count and see who's going this year. And what do you mean 'lack of glamour' you can't get much better than walking up the red carpet to Stevie Wonder's Superstition while Sharon Stone and Clint are right behind you. Changeling was a good film too.

    Some grabs from Finchy's blog at the foot of a freezing cold Darwen Tower.

    Plan 9 from Outer Space was distributed more widely than London to Brighton. That was an amazing film.

    That's not it either John. I think I may have misled by saying the DVD release was crippled. It was, and ended up not being released because we took back the rights before it could be. My point was that our film, regardless of what you think of it, was due to go out in 160 cinemas. That's a...

    Nooooooo, that's not what I'm saying John. I've officially given up. Well this is our site... I have a free evening and am flitting between this, the tv, a bit of editing, messing about on Facebook and a few other sites... It sounds more like a shadowy flight into the world of a man that does...

    You edited your post... What do you propose we do then apart from complain that we don't have any funding and we should all give £50 to a fund to create some kind of collective. Don't get Jon Williams on 'collectives' - he's had bad experience of such things.

    The scary thing is he was looking at me there... Actually, Wiggs was by the camera too. Could have been him.

    It wasn't the distributor's fault or magazines. Can you even read?

    Haha John, you're a character. You dodged that question very well. Keep on trucking with your 15 years of experience, it's done you well enough to ask for advice to ask us naive folk on here advice about prosumer video cameras :-o) "Don't be silly." It's not being silly. No one has a clue who...

    If you mean jackpot as in cash gepetto, that's not what I was striving for. Success yes, a career yes, my projects financed yes, but cash for myself has always been a secondary interest when it comes to filmmaking. Probably a good thing as I've made sod all from it! :)C

    Money grabbing artists

    Hang on, weren't music videos made to promote the music? If so what's the problem with having them on a public access site? Crazy! By that train of thought, perhaps Hollywood should pull all their film trailers off there. Them pirates will be copying them :huh: Let's take it even further. I...

    Where can I see Land of Nod guys? To be fair John I think it's a fair question from Chase. If you're going to be throwing criticism and advice around like you have been doing for the past few days I think it's only fair to at least announce who you are and what you have done. Even if it's just...

    London to Brighton's distribution was pitiful for a film that was so highly regarded. John, as someone who has made feature, which then found a distributor, which was due to distribute it theatrically in more than 100 cinemas in the UK, I can tell you that UK financed films are shafted over...

    Reform the Film Council! Now's the time for Action!

    According to Jonathan Gems, as well as the people you have written, luminaries such as Michael Caine, Richard Attenborough, Sean Connery - even Norman St John Stevas, Margaret Thatcher's own Arts minister have tried protesting and petitioning the government. I'm not saying we shouldn't do it...
