Update #1: Hello from The Apology Line

Posted on March 4, 2010

Hi everyone,

Firstly, thank you to everyone who has pledged so far, it is hugely appreciated and hopefully pledging will carry on and we will be able to get this project going.

James and I have decided that for each 1000 dollars reached on the way to our total we will post some more apologies from the UK line up here on this blog.

So here it goes;

“Yeah I’m really sorry for the money I stole. Must be about three thousand pounds. Sorry.”

“I’m sorry for everything. I’m sorry for upsetting the people in my life. I’m sorry for hurting them. I’m sorry for being born. I’m sorry for… goodbye.”

“Err hello yes, I err I punched this guy tonight and I just want to say I’m sorry. Ok bye.”

Will started out in the film industry as a runner for the post-production house MPC in Soho, London. He quickly moved on to become a Producer/Director for an IP production company developing formats and documentaries for broadcast on network channels and internet streaming. His decision to go freelance to work on more personal film, documentary and art projects soon paid off with the success of his first independent production The Apology Line, an experimental art project that eventually became a short documentary he devised and shot with colleague and fellow film maker James Lees. The film went on to win a number of awards on the festival circuit including Prix UIP Best European Short Film at the Cork International Film Festival, and was shown at Cannes and Sundance 08. Since then he has worked on various short film and documentary projects that have ranged from Channel 4’s 3-minute wonder series and the BBC’s New Music Shorts scheme. He has just completed his first fiction short film as a writer/director, it was funded by the UK Film Council and will be screened at various film festivals through 2009/10.
