50 Kisses FINAL Films Revealed

I am delighted to announce that we have locked the 50 Kisses feature film – and it’s running to 90 minutes almost to the second!

 

The team and our post production volunteers have been working through the holidays to overcome some technical challenges and get the film finished in time for the premiere.

And we have had to make some very tough choices too, over which films to include in their entirety.
 

As we said in our last update, ALL the films submitted to '50 Kisses' will be featured in some way in the final edit with 25 films being featured in their entirety.

 

Congratulations to ALL the film makers who submitted – we look forward to seeing you ALL at the premiere, in posh frocks and black tie, along with friends and family.

 

NOTE: EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO ATTEND THE PREMIERE, YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A FILMMAKER OR WRITER TO ATTEND

 

As well as the film screening, we will be presenting our artistic and technical awards too. All the films and filmmakers chosen to feature in the film will be in with a chance.

 

So, without further ado, here are the 25 films and filmmakers that will be FULLY featured in the 50 Kisses feature film.

    WOW... what a super lineup, thank you.

    We are so charmed, inspired and truly very overwhelmed and honoured to be amongst a great set of writers, films and filmmakers.

    Excited and looking forward to hugging you all and seeing you at the premiere, and for those who cannot be there, you will be hugged and in attendance in the spirit of your creations.

    Congratulations to all of you, inspired as a global collective sharing a passion for cinema, we embraced an idea and are about to cross the finishing line altogether, to Chris, Gail, and all the behind the scenes hard work, thank you for having us... giving us the opportunity to be part of a truly unique idea and for being there.

    Truly onwards and upwards... as Chris would say

    Congrats to everyone involved!
    Just a note, though - you've got the wrong writer credited for "Priceless". Vanessa Yardley did that one.

    Great to see it realised. Can't attend premiere as London is a long way from NZ - will have to organise one down under - how do we manage to get a copy to do that?

    Do the writers and the film-makers have to pay the full ticket price, as£19.99 is quite expensive for a ticket.

    Are there choices to the poster design we will be given?

    50kisses (Tuesday, 14 January 2014 17:01)

    Hi Anne, yes sadly you do - no-one gets a free ticket I am afraid as there is no budget at all. And Luke, there is just one poster.

    Well done everyone. I'm very proud to have been a winner in both parts of the competition as writer of 'Never Forget' and then as lead actor/producer of the winning film version of the script (we are Black Toffee/SnapperPunchFish).
    Unfortunately, I'm unable to attend the premiere as I'll be performing in my play 'Hidden' that night, although the director (Dan Price) sound genius (Ash Tidball) and lead actress (Emma Kenny) will be there to celebrate with you all. Enjoy! :)
