Olivier Venturini and Great Guns joined forces with Brothers & Sisters to film the first brand film for Matt Cooper's new venture The Fableists - a totally sustainable children's clothing line.
Shot on location around London, the film follows the journey of Finn, a fearless young boy who escapes to an urban jungle on his skateboard.
The two minute film is the first in a series of films which will document extraordinary kids around the world. Kids with gifts, drive and ambitions who have overcome adversity.

Some of you might already know but Vaudeville owned by the lovely Dan Jones have a sound suite in our London office in the basement. Dan's just made a move across the pond, and when he was looking to set up shop over in LA it seemed apt that it would be out of our LA office.
LA looking b-e-a-utiful on the day of the Vaudeville launch.
We don't have many pictures from the launch and have yet to show you all what our LA office looks like. But here's a little party pic from the outside terrace.

On to our bank holiday suggestions. First up TURN is screening this sunday at the London Independent Film Festival. From 1pm onwards on Easter Sunday you can watch it alongside a selection of other great short films at the Short Wave cinema
Sticking to the film theme, if you want to get stuck into something slightly longer & a lot more violent - Great Guns producer Sheridan Thomas recommends THE RAID 2.

Packed with a relentless barrage of action scenes, the two-and-a-half hour epic impresses with its amazing combat scenes entwined with a surprisingly gripping crime-drama story. Watch the trailer HERE and if you can handle the gore, catch it at pretty much any cinema.

Now no bank holiday weekend is complete without a great meal. And Laura Gregory has suggested The Perkin Reveller. It's situated on the grassy bank below the Tower of London - you could kill two birds with one stone... pay a visit to the Tower and then pop for lunch afterwards.
If the weather is nice we suggest sitting out on the terrace, but knowing London it will rain... which is fine because the inside is just as nice!
At Easter you can't go wrong with a gorgeous leg of lamb and lashings of mint sauce.
They do killer cocktails too! Here's one for the grownup kids.

On that note we hope you all have a wonderful & relaxing Easter.
