Teabreak made it to the final of the "Film" category of FilmFour/Tango's Uleash the Talent Inside competition.
The film was screened on FilmFour.com and, in December, Tom, Anya, Dave & myself had to attend the awards ceremony at Channel Four's offices in London. Unfortunately we didn't win.
Teabreak was the first film shown and, amazingly, the only one with a narrative. Go figure. Lots of people told us they liked it, though.
Since then, Teabreak has also been screened at the JVC Tokyo Video Festival, was entered into, but not selected for, Cannes 2002 and has been sent off for inclusion in the 2002 Raindance Independent Film Festival.
In March (or maybe April, I can't remember), Tom Webb & Kieran Lefort (with the assistance of Sam Milson & Dan Gould) shot the highly silly revenge movie, Jack Stone: Fez/Off, in which hard-ass action hero, Jack Stone (Dan Gould), finds himself battling evil Arab stereotypes.
The movie will be edited as soon as Mr. Webb returns from his annual jaunt to Canada and pics will be posted here with the next update.
