TIES THAT BIND


Jigsaw Productions are happy to announce one of their latest feature film projects, The Ties that Bind, written by English Novelist, Stephen Thompson, is reaching the final stages of the initial development period. This development process has involved director Dale Corlett and Stephen working closely together developing the various aspects of the final story.
A new script is due in the coming weeks with it then being forwarded to a number of industry producers and financiers who have already shown a lot of interest in the project.
As it's a low (ish) budget feature Jigsaw are expecting to fast track this project, with a plan to put it into production early next year. Watch this space !

Edinburgh International Film Festival '09


Jigsaw Productions have had a very productive and entertaining EIFF this year. With a few too many parties, a couple of red carpet events and a lot of meetings this years festival has proved to be a very productive one indeed. Developments have been made with our Australian / Scottish co production project, Shadow, with writer / actor Leighton Young flying in from Melbourne to meet with prospective investors and development executives. His visit also allowed him and director Dale Corlett some valuable face to face time working on the script and some of the developments they have been working through via sykpe for the past few months. Meetings with potential co producers also took place helping them to move this project into the next stage of development. Watch this space for updates.

Cannes '09


Following a very busy and productive Cannes film festival earlier this year, writer/ director Dale Corlett has been busy working on the re write of the second draft of his feature film Anarchy. He is happy to say that this has now been completed. The script is now being read by established film industry producers who have already shown a lot of interest in the project and following that, further development will take place before it is formally submitted for financing in Australia and New Zealand later this year.
