Over 500 people attended the world premiere of 50 Kisses on February 13th 2014. It was a knockout event with red carpet, WamBam burlesque performers, awards, an after party and of course a movie premiere! First was the red carpet and the opportunity to get

Ahead of the premiere, I thought we should share a short photo montage from the 50 Kisses journey, featuring lots of the 127 films and filmmakers involved, plus music from the 50 Kisses soundtrack challenge. It’s a reminder of the scale and ambition of 50

Over a year ago, my partner, Andromeda Godfrey, said that we should do this 50 Kisses competition. She has an uncanny intuition about these kinds of things so I always listen to her. Now we have a remarkable little film that is taking us places

  I produced and directed one of the versions of Kulvinder Gill’s ‘Romantic Hideaway’. Our journey in making this short film, both within and outside of 50 Kisses has been extraordinary and exhilarating to say the least. With two film crews and the male lead

How one filmmaker made their first film, against all odds, and it was part of 50 Kisses! Carolina shared in an email ‘“50 Kisses” and “Never Forget” not only reminded me of how much I really love bringing images to life, but also taught me the

What Shall We Do With 50 Kisses AFTER the Premiere? An open question and a few words of tough love. We have a number of things we can do with 50 Kisses after the premiere. First, we could release it on the internet free. This

I had decided to give up. Movies. Filmmaking. Writing. The lot. I was spent – in every sense of the word after a feature film that I had been working on passionately for several years as the writer/director crashed and burned 3 weeks before shooting

Last night I spent an hour on BBC London with Radio hosts Sunny and Shay, discussing film, music and of course 50 Kisses. This came right off the back of 50 Kisses Training Day on Saturday. Around 60 filmmakers and writers involved in 50 Kisses,

This afternoon I headed into Soho to watch the final DCP (Digital Cinema Package) at SDC for ‘50 Kisses’, alongside a journalist friend who writes for, and reviews films, for the broadsheets. His reaction? ‘50 Kisses significantly exceeded my expectations…’ I won’t say more till

I wrote the song “Good” while living in NYC, with most of my thoughts and songs ranging from the love-lost scorn to the revengeful strong woman  to the forever young anthem of taking on the world. When I wrote “Good”, however, I let myself wonder

I have just retuned from a visit to the office of the lovely people at SDC who are making the DCP for 50 Kisses. I know a great deal more about the process of making one now and plan an extensive blog on the matter

I little expected, when filming Rob Burke’s  LOVE script in the London Underground, that nine months later, I would be on the New York Subway on route to see our film screened at the Tribeca Film centre. Also our little film, shot guerrilla style in

To screen 50 Kisses in a cinema, we need to make a DCP. This is a specific file supplied on an industry standard drive. We could make our own DCP using OpenDCP (low budget and a little risky), but the lovely people at Soho Digital
