Fitting -- as everyone was curious to find out about Film Club’s involvement in creating the animation in Eric Steel's documentary Kiss the Water. I got the chance to speak to Tara Halloran of the British Film Commission and Katie Ellen of BFI aided by the fantastic Sabine Krayenbuehl, the film's editor.
The evening was beautifully timed as we want as many people as possible to see the stunning hand painted animation that our director Em Cooper produced for the film. Rubbing shoulders with the great and the good gave me the opportunity to let everyone know about the first screening of Kiss the Water. We really want the film to be well received since it's a truly beautiful story. Here's hoping our Film Brit Pack are as excited about it as we are!
It is always good when your reputation precedes you: having worked with BAFTA and Childline on 'Losing the Plot' for the Create and Make competition they ran. I got some lovely comments from BAFTA New York: Harlene Freezer, the chairman and Christina Thomas, its CEO. All in all, it was a really great evening and hopefully a taste of things to come!
For any of you visiting the festival in New York, here are the screening times for Kiss the Water.
