Outlawed: The True Story Behind Nottingham's Craziest Action Film
Thu 13 Jun 2019Seven years, over three hundred crewmembers, one Chinook helicopter, no budget and two directors learning how to make a film as they went along. For anyone that has worked in the Nottingham film industry over the last decade, the production of Outlawed took on something of a mythological status. Everyone knew someone that had been involved at some point, many doubted it would ever get completed, and the stories of firearms, exploding buildings and pissed off Council officials quickly became the stuff of legend. With the film now picked up for distribution, including a Netflix deal in the United States and a worldwide DVD release, we caught up with co-directors Adam Collins and Luke Radford to find out the truth about the most insane film production in Nottingham’s history...

Flat 21 Is an All-Female Written, Produced and Directed Web-Series Aiming to Address the Gender Imbalance in the Film Industry
Wed 05 Jun 2019Unless you’re an actor seeking work, the odds of you seeing a casting call for “Sexy zombie pole dancer in lingerie. No pay” or “Mid-20s woman, really attractive - pretty but still accessible” are pretty slim. Sadly, those are two real casting calls, but things in the film world are starting to change thanks to the hard work and dedication from those who have first-hand experience of how male-dominated the industry can be. We sat down with Georgie Levers and Esmee Matthews, the brains behind web-series Flat 21, to talk about how they’ve rounded up the all-star gals of the East Midlands to make the film industry a more level playing field…
