Weird FilmFour ad

FilmFour’s going to be free from July 23rd, as mentioned previously. To let everyone know, FilmFour got Kevin Spacey to direct an ad promoting this fact. He managed to get loads of his pals, including Lucy Liu, Christian Slater, Willem Dafoe, Ewan McGregor, Rhys Ifans and Dame Judi Dench, to appear, doing very odd things. More info over at Brand Republic, but here’s a shot from it, since no one’s uploaded a video yet. They’re in Trafalgar Square, incidentally.

I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
