2.LOCATIONS -

--Message from Stephan Silver
I am in the process of getting some furniture protoypes made that will be part of a new furniture collection of my architecture and design company: Xobo Design

We are looking for an interior setting to take photos and possibly video.

We are basically looking for an empty shell, neutral space.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks
Stephan

--We have decided to postpone the advanced scriptwriting workshop until the new year as we didn't want to split the course over Christmas and disrupt your creative flow. We also want to advertise it a little more and let people know that they will be getting a 10 week course with Gary mepsted, a script and creative writing tutor. If your interested (some of you are already) then please email.

--Anyone is allowed to come forward propose and set-up a challenge, so come on get involved and pitch your ideas to us. There is alot of help so no need to be scared !
