    Hero by Benjamin Davis

    Hero is a short film I wrote and directed primarily to enter into the Virgin Media Shorts Competition.

    Its a simple story about a young man who believes he is destined for greater things and is convinced  that he like many of his comic book idols has a super power. Through the course of the film our hero sets out to discover exactly what they may be.

    You can watch it here,

    Film books - Any recommendations?

    I’m wanting to increase my knowledge and inspire myself. Can anyone recommend any good books on film?

    Whether it be books on filmmaking, freelancing, cinematography, scriptwriting or a great filmmakers bio please point me in the direction of it.

    For Xmas I got my canon 550d pimped! New additions include the led light, the bracket holding the mic and the light and I treated myself to an intervalometer. I also got some sweet filters.

    I shot a Bhangra music video on Monday. I was helping out Ben Jacobson a fellow Leicester based Filmmaker who was Directing/1st Camera Operating and currently editing. It was an experience to say the least having very little knowledge of Bhangra music and music videos the whole day was an eye opener. I will have a link to the video up here as soon as it’s available.
