Pretty gutted that my original and signed copy of Bec went missing in London these past few weeks, but joyfully I've received my new copy...and it has the same cover! Writing the Bec finale can now continue. 🙂

When Spielberg hails filmmaking as the ultimate couch, he ain't kidding. Storyboarding is a time that you can put aside all the world's problems, and simply enjoy imagining your film as the first member of its audience. A satisfying part of the process. #billyfearlessfilm

I've always wanted to collaborate with a costume designer, and I'm thrilled to say that I've now entered the creative sandbox with Natasha Bilingham, the costume designer of viral Sci-Fi short 'The Nostalgist'. Expect very 'grunge' rock inspired anti-heroes, and very regal vampires! #vampirefilm

Last few weeks of pre-funded development, then off to the financiers we go! Crunch time.

Beyond thrilled that @darrenshan.bsky.social enjoyed our first Demonata TV script and that he's directly involved in the creative process. Hats off to @ijazi.bsky.social for writing a solid first episode (we're writing six each). Pic from Ijaz.

Rest in everlasting peace, David Lynch. You inspired so many of us who call ourselves filmmakers. A singular creative voice. One of the greats.

You know that pre-production on your own feature has started when you arrange a trip to see a similar film like Nosferatu with your cinematographer! 35mm screening! 🙌

Another new exciting Head of Department has joined the 'Billy Fearless' feature film squad! This is my first time working with a costume designer, which is something I've been wanting to do on a film since leaving film school a decade ago.

'Name The Thief' (working title). So far, we have multiple scripts per book (Lord Loss, Demon Thief and Bec). Of course, we could well combine books over the coming weeks, pending what we decide with Darren as a team. 😜

Like old school #adventures and Hammer Horror pictures, we want to do as much of it old school as we can - nothing beats doing much of it for real, nothing beats getting it in camera. Old school methods for a motion picture inspired by the greats. #billyfearlessfilm #vampires #horror #horrorsky

14 years later, producers boarded my debut feature, a coming of age adventure. It's a film that stays true to that wish I had as a wide-eyed teenager in love with cinema and filmmaking. Thank you Dean, for instilling a love for storytelling within me. From Lilo and Stitch to HTTYD.

The current social landscape inspired me to write a new microbudget short film in my spare time. Planning to get it made with resources we already have access to in the coming months.
