Critical Screening

Formative Screening today went really well and we received a lot of positive feedback for our projects. I was really pleased that everyone enjoyed ‘The Unthinkable Truth’ documentary and found Phil to be engaging and entertaining.  With the benefit of the big screen you could really appreciate how well Jim, the editor, has cut this doc in response to contemporary TV, additionally, the final interview with Phil was really worth pushing for at the shoot because Phi is emotional and impassioned and you can really emphasise with him as a contributor.  
Additionally, the BMX documentary has pulled together really well; the tracking shots have added a really ‘expensive’ look to the film and the use of the Birmingham World Championship races is excellent and all credit to James, the Director, for the level of access he gained to film those races. The film has a much more modern and dynamic feel to it than perhaps the ‘Alien’ programme and I think the timing with the start of the London 2012 Olympics makes this film wholly relevant and exciting.
Really happy with the feedback and the work just got to wait for the final screening next week.
