Nick Whitfield’s first feature film ‘Skeletons’ (2010) received a BAFTA nomination for ‘Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer’ and a Writers’ Guild of Britain nomination for ‘Best Film Screenplay’. The feature evolved out of short film he made in his neighbourhood of Matlock in Derbyshire, focusing heavily on improvising with actors.
“Ambitious and brightly original comedy” The Observer
“Whitfield is clearly a talent to watch” The Telegraph

Col Spector started out documentaries, made an award-winning short starring a then-unknown Keira Knightly and was signed up to direct commercials for Ridley Scott's production company. His first low budget feature was writer/director, 'Something Else' (2006), drew comparisons from critics to Woody Allen's 'Manhattan', and his second feature 'honeymooner', shot on a budget of £48,000 in 17 days, premiered at the Edinburgh Festival in 2010 and has enjoyed widespread festival success. Col currently teaches directing at the London Film Academy and Central School
