Whilst it's been some time since the last, I finally got around to refining my showreel. I've had the pleasure of working with some incredible talent and I can't thank them all enough for the support I’ve received on this journey so far. vimeo.com/calumrhys/show…

Today marks the 14th anniversary of Smashing UK Productions. The past few years have been incredible, but it's the future that truly excites us, with a slew of films and media ventures on the horizon. Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey so far.

A huge thanks to @BhamFilmFest for featuring my short 'Divided We Stand' in their Midlands Filmmakers Showcase and the two award nominations it's received. Devastated that I was unable to attend.

Ecstatic to have been nominated for best cinematography, by a jury containing none other than the brilliant Shane Meadows. A huge thanks to Michael and the entire @midlandsmovies team. Further congratulations to Sebastian, Brad, and Natalie!

The past few months have been somewhat slow on the film-side due to festival cancellations, however, things are finally starting to get moving again and we’re happy to announce that our short has been selected to host its European premiere in London at @ShortSightedLDN!

It’s been a while, but we finally managed to hit half a million views on 'Our Father'. A huge congratulations to the cast and crew involved who've ensured this film continues to gain momentum 4 years after its online debut. Now for 1 million!

Another classic talent of cinema has passed. RIP Mr Plummer (1929-2021), from 'The Sound of Music' up to 'Knives Out', you've left an incredible legacy behind!

Sean Connery’s Bond films were a huge part of my childhood and were what led me into pursuing filmmaking, so it’s saddening to hear of his passing. RIP Mr. Bond!

With the edit of our film wrapping back in August, September was left to focus on the score and audio mix, and we’re happy to say it’s now done, the film is now COMPLETE! As such I wanted to take this chance to release the final poster created by the ever-talented Balazs Pakozdi.
