NEW WEBSITEY

Hello neighbourinos, new bit of work popped up.

I've decided to spruce up the Derek's Don't Run Films bandwagon, give it a lick of paint, and smacked it on the arse.

So, up and running is new website for my little music video venture.  I present to you......




Feel free to spread the word and throw some feedback at me (which isn't just "that's a bit shit").

In other news, the screening last week mentioned HERE for the band Black Neon nights went very well.  Piccies below



Got a great reception and was good to see it with a crowd.

See ya on the flip side....Danny

SCREENAGE AND STUFF

Howdy peeps.

May kicking in so it must mean SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER time. So far, so average, but plenty of the year left movie-flick wise.

Anyway, back on song. By now you should've already checked out NECROMANCER by BLACK NEON KNIGHTS. If not, why not? Get clicking and share the mofo as much as!

If you're unable to do that because you'd prefer to see it live and with an audience, well then...we've got something lined up just for you.

The good Rob Speranza and the SYFN are screening the video at SHOWROOM SHORTS this Tuesday, 12th May at 8:45PM. More deets HERE.

Should be good as it's their Documentary night, which is usually full of interesting mini-docs made by local filmmakers and around the country. It's free, based in the Showroom bar, kinda a second home now. Come down if you can.

Also, you can now check out Black Neon Knights EP on all ya streaming platforms below:

It's been a busy two weeks doing the meet and greet thing. Had the chance to sit down for a Directors talk with Marco Van Belle who has just finished the rather impressive ARTHUR AND MERLIN. It's a fantasy epic that I miss out being one of the Assistant Directors on (yeah, pissed me off).

The film was shot for £200,000 which is mind-blowing to me. All involved just knocked it well out of the park with some bollocks to pull off what they did (it's basically as well made as an episode of Game of Thrones). Anyway, was a great talk. Really told you the home-truths of low budget filmmaking on that scale. Probably one of the best talks I've been too.

Along with that I got to see the new film by Duane Hopkins called BYPASS and met the films producer Samm Haillay. I chewed his ear off after the screening over a beer. Great feller with lots in the pipeline and gave some great advice to keep ploughing on. You may get that luck.

So...get to the screening. If you can't watch below and share people. Share. It.

 

 See ya on the flip side...Danny.
