New Projects

So here at Group 6 we've been busy. We have a total of about 8 films on the go just now so time is pretty much eaten up with work. Four of the films are on that interesting subject of statues, of which here in Edinburgh there are plenty of. Our subjects are Sherlock Holmes, World War Memorial and James Young Simpson. The films will be 3 minutes and 30 seconds long each according to our brief.

The statues we have chosen are pretty interesting. They each have a story and a reason for being there anyway. Take my statue for instance: Sherlock Holmes. Everyone knows him, the genius sleuth with something like 56 stories written about him and now with Steven Moffat's new modern day version it's brought the character back. Well anyway, my statue has mysteriously disappeared which makes it difficult to make a film about it. Or does it? What I decided to do instead was make it about me tracking down the statue. Which is so far going well. I know it's in storage anyway getting restored. I also know it's been moved forrrrr... you guessed it, the trams! So that's my statue.

Mike's is the war memorial and he is basically making his film about what it stands for. I'll let him fill this in about his statue later. Same goes for Neil who is making his about James Simpson the founder of using chloroform as a anesthetic.

The other films are two dramas and a documentary although they aren't nearly finalised so I can't really talk about them.

So that's a short update on what's happening at Group 6 for the time being!

ciao. Oliver Watson.
