My short ‘Open House’ will be screening this Sunday at the London Comedy Film Festival in the Short Film Showcase alongside other great comedy shorts including Mustapha Kseibati’s excellent Painkiller, produced by Michael Berliner.
The London Comedy Film Festival’s aim is to kickstart the next generation of British-based comedy film-makers. They take over the London BFI every January for a week showcasing comedy feature films, shorts and talks.
‘Open House’ is an improvised short which was made with comedians Paul Foxcroft (Monkey Toast,Horse Aquarium, Catch-23), Charlotte Gittins (Monkey Toast), and Briony Redman (Shortlisted for the BAFTA Rocliffe New Writing Forum at the New York Television Festival 2012) and Dean Kilbey (ITV TAKE THE MIKE: Finalist, BBC TALENT ACTING UP: Winner) and creatives Chris Andrews, Luke Wicker and Wilf Eddings.
It has been recommended on blogs/newsletters run by Raindance, ShootingPeople and London Improv.
Open House has been described as, "Bloody Impressive" – Holly Walsh (Mock the Week, Never Mind the Buzzcocks) and "Funny and entertaining" – Raindance Film Festival.
