This post has nothing to do with me, but as I'll always be extremely grateful to Peter Mullan for appearing in my first short film, The Neighbours (hard to believe it was 9 years ago), I was delighted to hear that he's to receive an honorary degree of Doctor of Drama from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland (RCS) in July. Not only is Peter a fantastic actor, he's also one of the good guys.

Our feature script Out There continues to gather momentum. In 2017 it was selected as one of eight European projects for the European Genre Forum (europeangenreforum.com), having previously been selected as a project to pitch at the Glasgow International Film Festival. With an experienced Exec Producer and successful co-Producers now onboard and various other interesting things going on in the background, here's hoping that we can build on this during 2018.

On Thurs 1st March, Director David Lumsden and I will be speaking about, Out There, our feature in development, during a panel discussion at the CCA Theatre, entitled, Case Studies: Journey of a First Genre Feature.
"Join Olivier Kaempfer, Production Executive at Film London, as he discusses the development journeys of two genre films by first time feature filmmakers. What are the biggest pitfalls and barriers on the road to getting your first film made? What are the best tips to getting your film financed? Olivier is joined by the team behind the thriller Zero, which has recently been made through Film London’s Microwave feature filmmaking scheme, as well the team developing their Scottish horror, Out There, through the European Genre Forum."
