Spring is well upon us and it’s been all change over here. I left my role at Warwick Arts Centre in April to embark on a full-time freelance journey and I am currently open for work.

Since leaving my position, I went back to France for a little while to see my family and give myself some well needed rest. I then worked with 606 Distribution on the release of The Old Man Movie - Lactopalypse, an outrageous Estonian animation from filmmakers Mikk Mägi and Oskar Lehemaa. The film is currently on a preview tour with Q&As before hitting cinemas in the UK and Ireland on Friday 2 June. If you want to see something that might have come out of the minds of the Aardman team if they’d taken some acid, this one is for you. Though beware: you’ll never look at milk the same way ever again. Watch the trailer here.

I’m also just back from the Cannes Film Festival where I joined the rest of the Mayhem Film Festival team as we begin to scout for films for our 2023 edition. Mayhem Film Festival will take place at Broadway, Nottingham on 12-15 October this year and we are now also accepting short film submissions via FilmFreeway here.
