2011 was a busy year. I feel very privileged to have gotten the chance to work on a variety of film projects and at the Odeon cinema on the 31st of March I will get the chance to see some of my exploits in Coast and Desecration.
THE C PROJECT is a collaboration programme for Northern Ireland filmmakers and writers at all levels. Scattered Images collaborates with three filmmakers/ writers each year. One of last year’s projects was Coast, in which I play the role of Chris. Here’s a little bit more about it:
After spending the day at a deserted beach on the north coast of Ireland, a group of office workers return to find their car stolen. Alone and without communication, they are faced with a long walk back across the coast or a longer walk back through the deserted country roads to the nearest town. Things only get worse for the group when they discover they are being stalked.
I play the role of Johnny in Desecration:
On a dark remote road a car is stopped by at a military check point. Something isn’t right and the soldiers find themselves in an unexpected situation… with deadly consequences.
The other films to be premiered that day will be Drowned at Birth and Hammer (for which my beautiful wife composed the music). The trailers are below.
Everyone’s welcome to attend – the event is free of charge and you’ll get the opportunity to see the work of some of Northern Ireland’s most exciting indie film makers. See you there!
