Love/Loss

It’s now a week since we wrapped production on Love/Loss, and what a week. Trying to come down from the adrenalin-fueled high of filming, trying to get back to more than four hours sleep per night, and trying not to worry about putting the film together! Plus the paperwork… so much of it, and with [...]

Yes, I’m a bit late with this, but the weekend flew by in a haze. Love/Loss officially wrapped principal photography on Friday 21st August at about 8.30pm — about an hour and a half behind schedule….
It was a crazy day. We started with the village dance club scenes, with surprise guest Len Goodman. Len was [...]

I know, I still haven’t put up the post about our last day of filming yet (I’ve been asleep…!), but we’ve just seen this — Len Goodman’s cameo appearance in our film has been covered by BBC Online!

We all lost several pounds today…. after weeks of rubbish weather, summer finally arrived. And guess what, we spent most of the day inside a small room! Once again we were up against the clock, but we made it. We ran late, but got the footage we needed.
Yet again the village showed its support (well, [...]

End of Tuesday; Day 10 of filming on Love/Loss. Difficult day, physically and mentally, but we got some fabulous footage again. We spent most of the day with Keith Michell and Virginia McKenna, with a lunchtime visit from Geoffrey Whitehead. No extras today, and no interiors. We had to contend with rapidly changing lighting conditions [...]

Great news! Love/Loss has been picked up by leading film industry site Screen (the online version of Screen International weekly magazine). So the trades now know all about us! Hopefully we’ll start some dialogue with potential partners. We’ll keep you posted on developments.

A late post; we reached our half way point and have taken Saturday off to catch up on sleep! So, we completed filming of Day 6 on Friday evening, and the weather held very nicely – no rain and quite a nice early evening sun. As you can see from our photograph (actually a down-sized [...]

Four days done now, only nine more filming days to go…. (plus the many pick-ups and scenic shots we need to complete the edit). The day started with the completion of a scene that was rained off on Sunday evening, and guess what, rain once again delayed the scene! But we got it… Roger, Keith [...]

Two days down; are we still on course? Well, sort of! The schedule was always going to be aggressive, but we have started to make some scene cuts in order to spend more time on key scenes. Technically, the camera is working a treat, which is a massive relief. The crew is pulling out the [...]

Joining Keith Michell in Love/Loss will be the wonderful Virginia McKenna. I am absolutely thrilled that she will be bringing to life Mary, the central character of the film.
Virginia McKenna won the BAFTA Award for Best Actress for her performance in the 1956 film, ‘A Town Like Alice’ and two years later was nominated for [...]
