Film Sponsorship Deal for 2012


We have been inspired to support a group of local film makers starting filming their first major film right here in the East Devon area. See the press release below..

A trio of local lads have formed a film production company ‘Primley Road Productions’ after much acclaim for their pilot episode of ‘Clive’ last year. Their first feature film, - The Catch – starts shooting in East Devon and other locations in July this year, and whilst they have been supported with location and studio equipment by MWS Media, a film production company in the Thames Valley, much needed funding is required for hiring locations and more. Rudge Renewables have helped with some sponsorship, but more is needed to bring this home grown comedy to the UK’s film screens.
‘The Catch’ is a character driven, coming-of-age comedy, with a truly original story. Supported by the acclaimed production company, MWS, who are eager to nurture Britain’s next generation of film makers, Rudge Renewables have also been keen to invest in the future of these local talented youngsters who obviously have a planned future in British film writing and production.
Resume of the three, all from East Devon:
Based in Seaton, Oliver Dowling has gone on to graduate with honours from Kingston University in film and creative writing. His passion for comedy was rewarded in 2010 when he won the award for 'Best original Joke' on BBC Radio. He co-wrote and starred in television series pilot 'Clive', and has been a guest speaker several times at the London Comedy Writers Group, based in the heart of London's west end.
Joel Emery graduated from Middlesex University with a first, and has since worked on various projects. His short-film 'Exposures' was shortlisted on several national film festivals. He collaborated on 'Clive', co writing with Oliver Dowling and directing the pilot. Joel currently works for the BBC, as head of graphic design and moving images on such shows as Match of the Day and Football Focus. 
Adam Jarrell is an actor/singer who has performed all over the world, ranging from cruise-ships to international tours. His debut feature film 'Nuryan', in which he played the lead, won the prestigious 'Best Film' and the London Independent film festival. Adam also played one of the lead characters in the award-winning production of Stephen Sondheim's 'Assassins' at the Union Theatre, Waterloo in 2010. He is currently on tour with 'Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat' in which he is receiving rave reviews for his portrayal of 'Pharaoh'.
