The Bossy Books premiered at Hedben Bridge Picturehouse as part of the towns first animation festival Uncanny Valley...

I was judging at this festival and as such The Bossy Books was not in competition, although had it been it may have taken the audience award given the reaction of one lovely fellow judge Kaye who was having the time of her life in her cinema seat. Yes I'm happy to say that we did good kids, we made her mascara run. Rivers of the stuff.

It's always a very nervous occasion a premiere and yes it's a collaborative effort and yes the kids who were there may have also felt a little panic about what was to unfold on the big screen, but all worries flew away when the film began to have it's audible and visual effect on the 100 strong audience members.

There is no doubt in my mind that this years Working Class Film's trilogy of short live action/animation films are something special and I look forward to celebrating them with invited guests at the HAFTAS on Friday the 28th of June.

Eli Naumann, promising graduate from the School of Gonging, Hafsah Naib, frequent sun lounger, and Sue Bladon, teacher fantastique at Central Street...all looking suitably chuffed during the Haftas!

A BIG thanks to all those who have participated, helped and attended the HAFTAS! I do have to thank one particular person and that’s year 2 teacher Sue Bladon whose creative and cheeky combination of my name with an iconic national institution is a stroke of genius and worthy of an award itself. Well done Sue! BAFTA. Sounds so boring now doesn’t it.

Any pupil, adult, gardener, artist or Elvis impersonator who would like to write a review of the HAFTAS, the Wait a Minute films, or your experience of being involved in the project with me, then please get in touch using this: childhaych76@yahoo.co.uk and a computer, so that I can publish your work on here for all to read! Ask permission from your grown ups!

I’ve got lots of bits and bats to share, so keep coming back! Working Class Films might be flying around The Uncanny Valley with a few little birds this summer.??!!

More coming soon! Peace and Pies Hafsah
