It's been a while since I posted anything and for that, many apologies and no excuses. A lot has been happening since March so I'll get stuck in.
At the moment I'm in the middle of editing Kelly+Victor, a film written and directed by Kieran Evans and adapted from the novel by Niall Griffiths. The film is produced by Janine Marmot (Hot Property Films London) and is co-produced by Andrew Freedman (Venom Films Dublin) and is supported by Film Agency Wales, the Irish Film Board, FilmFour and Domino Publishing. I'm editing the film in Venom's cutting room in Ranelagh, Dublin, and I'm at about the half way stage in the editing schedule.
It was shot over four weeks in Liverpool from late August 2011 and I had a great experience there despite the hard work & long hours. It was my first time to visit the city which is slightly absurd since it is close to Dublin in more ways than one. I fell in with the spirit & the craic of the place straightaway, thanks to Chris Taylor, Dave McCabe, Spud Murphy and the rest of the gang. The crew were all great gas and the banter was non stop even while working under the typical conditions of low budget film production. It was an intense and special time, to say the least. The film was shot by the young yet incredibly unflappable cinematographer Piers McGrail on the Arri Alexa system and he has done a fantastic job, as always.
