We are so excited to have been nominated alongside some great people and films.

Good luck to everyone who was nominated!

Variety shared a review of Ali & Ava from this years’ BFI London Film Festival.

Connie Farr handled the music supervision for this film.

“The film’s first memorable use of music comes as his car is being barraged. Ali puts on a track by neighborhood favorite MC Innes, and suddenly, the hostiles have dropped their rocks and are dancing along. The next time Ali and Ava meet, he has his headphones on, and she’s got folk playing on her earbuds. With just a little bit of ingenuity, they find a way to enjoy their conflicting musical preferences in one another’s company.”

We are delighted that two amazing films and a tv series that we worked on premiered at the 65^th BFI London Film Festival this year!

On 10^th October, the premiere of ‘True Things’ directed by Harry Wootliff. The cinema was packed with cast & crew, industry professionals and film enthusiasts. It truly was a marvellous evening!

‘Ali and Ava’, directed by Clio Barnard, was presented on 13^th October, as the Mayor of London’s Special Presentation film, at the Royal Festival Hall, by Film London and Sadiq Khan. What a privilege it was to have been involved in this production!

‘Curse of the Chippendales’, directed by Jesse Vile, tells the bizarre story of behind the scenes of the most popular male exotic dance show. The crime documentary was shown as part of the series section of the festival. We think this is must-watch, with a great 80’s soundtrack! 

It was such a pleasure to be involved in all three of these projects, we are so proud of everyone who made them possible!

Congratulations everyone! 😊

The new Discovery+ documentary series untangles the wild and chaotic web of male strip club Chippendales, its founder, and the sinister affairs that went on behind the scenes.

The documentary slowly tracks the club’s raging success through the first-person accounts of those involved in it. Everyone from dancers to law enforcement remains incredulous, decades later, at just how out-of-control and dangerous the backroom intrigue became.

Connie Farr was the music supervisor for the series, which features music from Kool and the Gang, Hot Chocolate, Loverboy, Simple Minds and A-Ha.

The Phantom of the Open tells the remarkable true story of Maurice Flitcroft, a crane operator and optimistic dreamer from Barrow-in-Furness who, with the support of his family and friends, managed to gain entry to the 1976 British Open qualifying, despite never playing a round of golf before. With pluckiness and unwavering self-belief, Maurice pulls off a series of stunning, hilarious and heartwarming attempts to compete at the highest level of professional golf, drawing the ire of the golfing elite but becoming a British folk hero in the process.

The official trailer features Steve Harley & Cockney Rebel’s “Make Me Smile”, the film will be released in UK cinemas soon.

Memory Box: Echoes of 9/11 is a feature documentary that tells the story of September 11, 2001, through a unique set of eyewitness testimonies recorded in a small plywood booth in the months following the attacks.

Twenty years later, the eyewitnesses return to the box to share their memories and reflect on America today. Bridging past and present, the film is a searingly emotional portrayal of hope, resilience and how to heal.

Connie Farr was the music consultant.

The film will be shown on Sky Documentaries on 9th September at 9PM.

“A caustic online streamer’s anarchic behaviour triggers a non-stop nightmare in the latest screenlife frightfest from Rob Savage.”

Produced alongside genre specialists Blumhouse Productions, Dashcam looks to be another clever take on the found-footage format, this time using the titular recording device as our lens to whatever terrifying bumps in the road have been created for this horrific 77-minute journey.

Set to have its world premiere during the Midnight Madness slot at this years’ Toronto International Film Festival.

Discovery+ on Monday said that Curse of the Chippendales, its four-part true-crime drama docuseries, is set to premiere on September 24.

The project, from Oscar-and Emmy-winning filmmakers Simon and Jonathan Chinn via Lightbox, unravels the dark side of the 1980s all-male striptease dance troupe founded by Steve Banerjee. On the crime side, it tackles the murder-suicide of Playboy Playmate of the Month and actress Dorothy Stratton and her estranged husband Paul Snider, as well as the murder of Emmy-winning producer Nick De Noia orchestrated by Banerjee.

It also highlights what being part of the wild shows was really like from the point of view of the dancers and their throngs of female fans.
