Hi all, so Andrew's film didn't win at the Swansea film festival but he had a great experience there and is currently planning his second film.
He needs your help though, he is currently after some funding and has the chance to get £30,000 from the movie mogul fund. If you can take a couple of minutes out of your time and register and vote for him here he would be very grateful, he is currently in second place but with your help will get the funding. His film is One True Sin, after you register, just tick next to his film and press the vote link. Simple as that.
Can we get back on topic and leave all the innuendo for other threads please.

Yes, you can, I meant no offence, I just didn't want the message of this thread being shrouded by loads of posts on Andrew's 'hotness' or whatever. If you were trying to do something worthwhile, would you want people just to comment on your looks?
Anyway, the votes are going up, so lets hope he can get this money as it will help him so much.
what a fab expression.
His work will speak for itself.
A friend of mine won best newcomer at a festival for his film
'The Liberace of Bagdhad'
He had been trying for years to get somewhere,now he is in Japan making a film.
Excellent, well done to him, it is always nice to see friends succeed.
Andrew's first film, which I posted links to on here was almost a completely solo project with him writing, directing, producing, filming, editing, mixing the sound and also acting in and it was produced on a real shoestring. I think he did a really good job with it and with a bit of money behind him to get more technical support etc, he can only get better.
I have never been that ambitious myself but when close friends do well it fills me with such a good feeling, I know the guys that really want it deserve it, mostly they have suffered for their art and are so driven.
I wish him all the luck in the world and a successful career.
As long as he gets the votes & the money I shouldn't think Mr Tanner would really mind people commenting on his looks or anything else for that matter - especially given the fact that both you & he are using a Bowie website to garner those votes.

I'm sure we can all vote for him, as Alan said it's very easy and costs nothing. After going this far I think it would be nice for him to win.
