Promo for Romantic Comedy Film ‘What Goes Up’ by LSM Students

Posted on May 28, 2014 by RW

An update from LSM’s student Hannah Skidmore who is the Producer at GSProductions. It’s an indie made up of a student team. The production’s making the feature length rom-com ‘What Goes Up’ film:

“The official trailer for GSProductions first feature film has been released. Pre-production began in May 2013 with a team of just under 20 people working to promote the project and raise funds via an IndieGoGo campaign. After meeting their goal of just over £3,500, they were able to hire and shoot on a RED One digital camera, allowing for full cinematic scale, as well as receiving merchandise and the legal rights for the products used throughout the film, such as Rubik’s from Seven Towns Ltd. An original score is also being created for the film by Vincent Walker of Suburban Legends, which really brings the film to life. The film was shot in just over three weeks in July 2013 and is now nearing the end of production, with the final stages of post-production currently underway, with hopes to release the film at the end of September 2014.”

Meet the Graduates 2014 | What’s the Value of Work Experience?

Posted on May 13, 2014 by RW

What’s the Value of Work Experience? This is the next clip in the Q&A series from Meet the Graduates 2014. The networking event between our students and graduates was part of Lincoln School of Media’s 20th anniversary at the University of Lincoln. Thanks to all alumni, students and staff who came to MtG 2014.

Alumni Stuart Lutes (Class of 2001), Adam Verity (Class of 2002), Zoe Easey (Class of 2007), Phil Stevens (Class of 2010), Holly Smith (class of 2010) and Stephen Bernard (Class of 2013) were on ‘Graduate Question Time’. LSM’s student crew, via New Media Lincs, Year 2 Rory McCarney, Year 3 Kirsty Gibson and Kamil Rewers captured the popular Networking & Graduate Question Time. In this piece, our former students share their experiences about where’s best to be based in the country for opportunities and the value in doing work experience.

See the MtG 2014 clip ‘Where Are Alumni Now?’ on a previous post.

Backyard Productions ‘The Drift Trailer’ by LSM Grads & Students

Posted on May 12, 2014 by RW

LSM’s 2008 alumnus Director and Producer Darren Scales (and a part-time lecturer at the School) tells us about his latest venture at Backyard Productions UK. Apparently the project was done on a budget of £5,000 with goodwill from a bunch of local and media volunteers!

The Drift Trailer HD “is an original sci-fi trailer made by LSM graduates and undergrads. We have really gone all out to make this a massive movie with a micro-budget! That is the biggest challenge: creating an original story with that immersive movie look with next to no funding – but I think we have done it. Now in the post-production phase, I have no doubt that THE DRIFT (set 100 years from now) is going to be something really special. The movie will be out at the end of the year.”

You can make donations towards ‘The Drift’ movie at Backyard Productions, which is a voluntary group. Details are on its site.

Meet LSM Graduate: Indie filmmaker Mike Henry, Class of 2009

Posted on February 10, 2014 by RW

Currently shooting ‘Time and Place’ and here’s an extract from Quandary Productions online journal, which Mike posted yesterday (and he’ll be at LSM for our new Mentoring pilot and ‘Meet the Graduates‘ THIS Wednesday):

We’ve passed the half way point of the film now and it looks like the only major problem we could have with upcoming shoot dates is the weather. Our eleventh day was a bit of an odd one (even by our standards). We started off by shooting a quick few shots, which required Shaun Woodgates to cover his face in flour and lie face down in a field (he’s an incredibly dedicated chap so we knew we could rely on him). After laying, surrounded by several mounds of horse dung (and battling the extreme wind), we headed to Charles Cromwell’s house to finish off his remaining scenes. Continue reading …
