Bang! Short Film Festival Is Calling It A Day
Thu 27 Nov 2014Short films are perfect. Perfect for the filmmaker wanting to showcase what they can do, perfect for the YouTube generation struggling to concentrate on anything for more than an hour, perfect for creating some of the most diverse film festivals out there. Bang! Short Film Festival started off small but, as the digital age took hold and their audiences got bigger, it grew into a beast of a festival. Unfortunately, after fifteen years of filling Broadway’s screens with bite-sized reels, they’ve called it a day. We get all nostalgic and look at what the festival meant to filmmakers and audiences alike...

Interview: Alex from Ideas on Paper
Tue 14 Oct 2014Despite the digital revolution, reading a magazine on a device is never quite as good as the real thing. It’s not all nostalgia - although yes, there is something wonderful about flicking through pages at leisure while getting a hit of the distinctive smell of ink and paper - physical print is actually easier to read. We spoke to Alex Smith, the man behind the independent magazine shop Ideas On Paper, about why print is here to stay...

Lenton Flats from This Is England and Control Scheduled for Demolition
Wed 24 Sept 2014Once a shining hope for the post-war housing crisis, and the backdrop for films such as This Is England, Control and Weekend, the Lenton Flats were slated for demolition three years ago. By late 2015 they will be but a memory. We look into why they outlasted similar housing projects and why the five tower blocks are the subject of Rubber Goat Films’ latest documentary.

Stories From The Raleigh Factory
Wed 01 Aug 2012Walking straight out of school on Friday and into work on Monday. Grafting in a building the size of a small town. Workmates walking around with their giant appendages hanging out near machinery that could rip an arm off. Suicidal staff members helping themselves to cyanide. Mass copulation in the Pump Shop. Your workplace having its
own fishing pond and ballroom. If you weren’t around when Britain was the workshop of the world instead of its pound shop, only one word springs to mind when you read the tales of those who worked at Nottingham's iconic bicycle factory; Raleigh.
