James is back with more next Thursday!


On Thursday June 10 James Page will return with more of his impressive portfolio

James has written a few words about himself and the films he will be showing.

I'm a Midlands born filmmaker. I won a Royal Television Society Award in 2005 for editing a feature called Dead Trees, and a feature I edited, "Wasters", won Best British Film at the Heart of England Film Festival in 2009, and is screening at international festivals as we speak. I'm currently writing a feature based on an International award winning play, which I'm looking to raise funds to make.

The Screening is of "Self Help" a short film I've written and directed, and 5 short films and music videos I've edited, all of which were completed in the last month. All 6 pieces are screening at festivals over the next year.
