Head in the Clouds

By |2016-12-31T02:17:31+00:00December 1st, 2013|Uncategorized|0 Comments

Arrived in Lagos several hours ago and as I sit in bed the task ahead seems daunting.  Do I have the sheer tenacity and persistence it takes to do business in Nigeria? A part of me quails at the very thought of trying, but the other part tells me, if I can convince one person in Nigeria to support Imagine This, then I stand a greater chance back in London knocking on the door of the establishment. I've not yet gone calling because rightly or wrongly, I feel that it's a closed shop and you have to have an in, on top of that I also feel that my story isn't the kind of story that they want to tell.  So instead I've come to Lagos to find my fortune.  I'm told money follows money, so by my reckoning if I get some funding, it will be much easier to [...]

My Thoughts on the Diversify Conference

By |2016-12-31T02:17:31+00:00November 14th, 2013|Film, Imagine This, Thoughts, Who am I|0 Comments

Today started with me not wanting to get out of bed, because as usual I was up late. I had to get a draft of the script to the lovely Ben, who is sorting out the budget. Anyway I woke up and thought, I have so much work to do, do I really want to go to a conference and listen to people tell me what I already know? But then I thought, but maybe they will have solutions or action points or suggestions on what can be done to improve the diversity of minority groups in the UK film & TV industry.  I've dipped in and out of the media world through the passing years. I started with radio, managed to get one radio play on Radio 4, but then my lovely producer left to have a baby and that was the end of that.  The next play she [...]

Imagine This: It’s a Journey

By |2016-12-31T02:17:31+00:00November 4th, 2013|Film, Imagine This|0 Comments

So last week after putting an ad on Shooting People, I met a potential producer for Imagine This, only problem is that he wanted to be paid up front and me has got no money to pay. So it looks like for now I'm going to have to be my own producer until I can raise some finance then it will be a case of finding a very good line producer.  Well that's the plan for now, who knows, it might change in the future.  I'm still excited but daunted by the sheer amount of work that needs to be done in the next couple of weeks. Game on. I'll be using this blog for updates as and when they happen, for now it's all quiet on the Western Front.

Super Excited

By |2016-12-31T02:17:32+00:00November 1st, 2013|Film, Thoughts|0 Comments

So I reckon it's time to put More Cake on the back burner and concentrate on getting Imagine This off the ground and I'm very excited.  I don't know why, 'cos I don't have a farthing to my name and I've no idea how I'm going to raise the capital to make the film.  But you know what, the world is such a wonderful place and I believe it will happen. I've set things in motion and there are possibilities out there and I think that's what is exciting when embarking on a new project.  You have a lot to lose but so much to gain too.  So instead of worrying about stuff, I'm going to hope that along my journey, I meet the kind of people who are open to a proper collaboration.  Yes we all want to get paid and keep body and soul together, but I want [...]
