Caroline Cooper-Charles, Head of Creative Development at Warp X, will be joining us to talk about Warp X - Warp Film’s latest venture into low budget feature filmmaking - and their plans to make exhilarating films with outstanding new and established creative talent, "genre movies with an original twist and creative signature". This will be followed at 10pm by a screening of Shane Meadow’s DEAD MAN’S SHOES.

"Warp X intends to build on Warp’s reputation for combining creative originality with commercial success, with releases like Shane Meadows’s DEAD MAN’S SHOES, Chris Cunningham’s RUBBER JOHNNY and Chris Morris’s MY WRONGS 8245-8249 and 117.

During the next three years, Warp X is going to make seven films. Warp X
will harness cutting edge digital technology and low budget production
methods to make high value movies that can reach cinema audiences
across the world.

These films will be managed and produced by Warp X for the Low Budget
Feature Film Scheme set up by UK Film Council’s New Cinema Fund and
Film Four to revitalise the low-budget sector of the British film industry.
Our other key financial backers are EM Media  and Screen Yorkshire.

Optimum Releasing will be closely involved in the development process,
and will distribute the films theatrically and on DVD in the UK. Channel
4 will take UK television rights.

Warp X is a brand new venture in the British film industry, intending to build
a sustainable digital studio that is driven by creative talent and a dynamic
digital business model that rewards everyone involved in the films.
Our financiers have agreed that creative talent should share in the gross
revenue of any film once the commission and expenses of distributors and
sales agents have been deducted."
