Back into a raft of roleplay work at The GU Medical School to kick off a really productive month and booked in 3 more film jobs this first week. Re-united with pals from previous shoots on the latest 48 Hour Film Challenge Edinburgh for a brilliant shoot at an amazing, authentic WW2 location, Cultybraggan
Camp for FIGURE IN THE FOG, which won the Audience Award for Best Film. A fab shoot with great people and produced by KD Films, directed by Dominique Mabille. Here are a few stills from this shoot
and another RP/Military role for me to get to grips with. Really impressed with the finished film which
l
looks great and will now tour the short film festival circuit and no doubt garner more awards.So yet
another 48 Hour Film success to add to the list and always tough but exhilarating shoots trying to
write, shoot and edit a full short film in one weekend! Really enjoyable experience and a great team!
More film work the following week with the first of my travels up North to shoot the long-awaited EMINENT feature film, which has been booked for months and another brilliant script and premise
by the talented Kelvin Richards. Another excellent day's work, following a stunning drive to the
island of Skye and an atmospheric location to shoot this low budget, but brilliant feature film.I play another dodgy character in this one, pictured above, and great to team up with more old pals on this.
There's another block of filming to do early 2026 and hopefully EMINENT will be out later in the
year. Good news also as HERE COMES THE NUN, directed by Jack Willison, continues it's successful festival run, winning Best Scottish Film at the Edinburgh Short Film Festival, pictured above. Drove to
Glasgow the following day to shoot an interview with BBC Alba's news show An La to discuss the
history and current developments with Third Lanark Football & Athletic Club which I am the CEO of and great to be back at our spiritual home of Cathkin Park for this shoot. This is the 10th production we have
brought to our former ground and hope it brings more attention and community focus on the history of
this magnificent amphitheatre of Scottish football. Back up to Arbroath immediately after to shoot yet another feature film, WITHERING HEIGHTS - HOUSE OF THE DAMNED and another horror film set in this wonderful location pictured above. Great cast and crew and a brilliant retelling of the original.
Produced by EMRJ Productions and directed by the brilliant Rebecca Matthews, it was another accent for me, this time Yorkshire and a fab and moody scene, shot in only 2 takes and delighted with this one!
Great to meet up with Gordon J Miller again, with whom I've worked on several shows with previously
and pictured above. Back to Zico at The Barras Market and we were joined by my pal Tony Curran from BLOOD OF MY BLOOD as he shopped at our wee store the next weekend. Just time for one rehearsal for an exciting roleplay gig next month and a few more audition tapes for indie work later in 2026 to round off an excellent month's graft.
