    Default Are you in the UK? Then say hello.

    Hi Everyone,

    This is a thread dedicated to all the UK dwellers on the board.
    I know there are a few so I thought it might be a good idea to start this thread so if we wanted to work together or needed a hand with something we could figure out who's closest without too much fuss.

    Anyway, might be a nice idea to let us all know whereabouts you reside and anything else that might be useful.

    Cheers,
    Rumple.

    I'm an ex Watfordian, does that count?
    The Korova milkbar sold milk-plus, milk plus vellocet or synthemesc or drencrom, which is what we were drinking. This would sharpen you up and make you ready for a bit of the old ultra-violence.

    Rumple,

    I live in Yokohama, Japan. But I'm Watford born and bred, however, I must stress that Elton John has never been up my alley.

    Thanks Rumple. I'm loving the results I'm getting with the HV20 and Jag35. It's working really well with the needs of my story. And I've found this site a very useful resource. The people on here really understand the whole concept of guerilla filmmaking.

    Wow! This is a very wise, Mogul.

    I'm back and forth, but, I'm doing a short in the New Forest, south coast, not far from Southampton/Bournemouth.

    If anybody is about and would like to help with sound (I have no sound experience) Then they'd be most warmly welcome.

    Professional, reputable cast. Prof. 1st AD helping.

    Planning to rec. sound separately and sync in post.

    camera sorted (well, trying to source one at the mo).

    Period piece, 1940s. Filming all on beautiful locations with agreed permission.

    if anyone's ineterested?!!!!

    Oh! Thanks for the reply Rumple, kind of you. Have fun on Hustle.

    Hopefully we can cross paths in the new year when I hope more will be underway.


    If anyone else is interested please do get in touch. Should be exciting and there's a top-notch creative team on board (gosh, not necessarily referring to me, hope that didn't sound arrogant!). Drop me a line.

    best.

    Thumbs up Hey!

    Found this thread on Rumple's signature, thought I'd say 'Hi!'

    I live in Burton on Trent, Staffordshire - where all the beer comes from!

    Had my HV30 for about a year, love it bits.

    I (try to) write and shoot short films, a bit of wildlife here and there, and documentaries. Been filming a few years now but still learning.

    Love this forum, it's given me sooo much info since I've been an active member.


    Rumple, so cool you work on Hustle - I adore that show! Just one spoiler for the fans - is Stacie coming back?!
