The concept comes from Philip Reeve's series of YA novels which are extremely good reads for YA and A readers alike - so part of the appeal of the movie is seeing the book world brought to life.Sci-Fi Genehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18038987149801517138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450657908743578837.post-73440679421142749752018-12-26T02:50:35.785+00:002018-12-26T02:50:35.785+00:00I really don’t know how to feel about this movie. ...I really don’t know how to feel about this movie.

Reading other reviews and comments I suspect it may be a love-it or hate-it kind of movie.

In answer to your questions: this project took a long time - several months, partly due to the fact that we made the video twice, almost starting from scratch the second time. Yes, I've made other videos and yes, I've been self-taught up to this point, learning by doing - I learnt a great deal from this particular project which was one of the reasons for taking it on.<br /><br />The tab above named "2007 music video" links to a page with more information about "2007" including my blog posts from the production. There's also a tab above, "My short films" that links to all my online films, including other music videos.Sci-Fi Genehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18038987149801517138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450657908743578837.post-88668945502437113512017-09-24T09:29:46.717+01:002017-09-24T09:29:46.717+01:00How long did it take you, starting from writing th...How long did it take you, starting from writing the script to the end?
