The Spell will soon open in 17 cinemas across the country. New to the list are the Showcase cinemas in Derby, Peterborough and Dudley.

The National Press show screening for the film took place today and 17 film critics from the national daily and Sunday papers attended, including one very famous television film critic whose favourite film of all time is, allegedly, The Exorcist!

I hope you get the chance to listen to my soundtrack and the 3 songs specially written for the film.

If you’d like to see the film and make an evening of it, here’s a link to the screening times:

If you do see the film, I’d love to hear what you thought of my music

You Can't Hide From What's Inside You!

This post’s title is the new tagline for Carey Film’s new feature, The Spell.

From Friday 2nd October, The Spell is to be shown at 14 cinemas across the country from Paisley in Scotland to the West End of London and from Sunderland in the North East to Bristol in the South West.

Carey Films will be working flat out to get press and television coverage and will also be distributing around 500 small posters and 30,000 flyers in the cities where the film is to be shown (London, Leeds, Sunderland, Cwmbran, Leicester, Bristol, Coventry, Liverpool, Manchester, Newham, Paisley Reading and Hull).

If anyone wants to help with this, please do let me know – we need all the help we can get as the plan is to distribute these promotional materials in shops, offices, universities, etc. Drop me a line and I’ll pass it on to the film’s producer/director, Owen.

Meanwhile, keep popping back to the site as I’ll be putting up screening times as soon as I have them. Oh, and go and see the film – obviously!

Finally, if you haven’t voted (5 stars please!) for the film’s closing song, Moving On, go and do so now: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNXOvHDz_GQ

Where You From?

The Yorkshire Post’s Arts Reporter, Nick Ahad, has just made his first short film – Where You From? – and it can be seen on my showreel page (http://www.alanjmoore.com/rave/myWimpy.html).

The film stars Deborah McAndrew from Coronation Street.

This was an enjoyable project and had one of the shortest deadlines I’ve ever worked to (a couple of nights!).  It goes to show just what can be achieved without a budget but an enthusiastic and talented cast and crew.

Hope you like my piano-based soundtrack too, of course
