Hi Everyone. I am working on a feature horror film entitled Road to Nowhere which is to be shot in Queensland, Australia. Road to Nowhere is an anthology horror film which is based on true stories. Four friends are on their way to a college reunion party. Their frivolity turns into a nightmare as their car breaks down in the middle of a cemetery and they are forced to face their own personal fears. Comic moments give way to bloodshed as ghosts, spirits, and possession by demons walk the earth in search of innocent victims and “Three Idiots” meets “The Hangover” in a terrifying real world of horror and death. At the moment we are finalizing the finance & casting and hope to go into production in March.

Hi there. Just wondering if anyone knows about or has had anything to do with Movie Maker Academy? Their 12-week online course costs $3,000 which is a lot of money. Just wondering? Your thoughts would be most appreciated. Many thanks, Best, James

Five Bangkok slum children are saved from poverty, disease and abuse by art and the dedicated care of a maverick priest. Father Joe Maier moved to Klong Toey 45 years ago to help the poor and sick. He has guided thousands of children like Note, Keng and the triplets Fon, Fa and Fai from extremely difficult childhoods to happy and constructive lives, often using art as a way of releasing positive energies and culminating in a sold-out Art Exhibition in Australia.

‘Through the Eyes of Children’ is also one of the first original productions from Real Stories. It has the uplifting quality which is part of what characterises this fast-growing documentary channel. It was directed by James Lingwood at Lingwood Productions, Brisbane, Australia for Little Dot Studios.

‘Through the Eyes of Children’ is the tenth Real Stories Original film – part of the debut slate of original productions from Real Stories. (10 other Originals have been commissioned so far, with more coming for mid-2018.) Real Stories is the documentary channel of Little Dot Studios.

Hi there. Hope you are all doing well. I have just joined so I guess I'll need a bit of time to find my way around. I live in Brisbane, Australia but travel quite a bit to India and China. Look forward to meeting some of you further down the track. All the best.
