Post Event Report
24/01/05 (edit 28/01/05) - We are delighted to announce that the UK Premiere of Griffin was a phenomenal success, so much so that with regret, people had to be turned away at the door. We apologise for the disappointment this may have caused but thank you sincerely for your support.
Because of last nights success we are now looking into the possibilities of getting the film shown at other venues around the country and for this we would appreciate your help.
To help try and help us secure distribution we would like to know what you thought of the film. The more interest there is in Griffin, the more likely we are to be able to make this possible and allow other people up and down the country to be able to see the film.
Please send your comments and thoughts on the movie to us here or via the link in the sidebar. We are also interested in knowing where you heard about the film. Was it from newspapers, radio, posters or word of mouth maybe?
We are also planning to make the film available on DVD at some point in the near future and, again, we would like to know interest levels on this.
Also forthcoming to the site are behind the scenes photos from the shoot and news of future upcoming projects from TaffKirk Films. So please check back for updates on this and news of possible further screenings of the movie.
And so finally thank you once again to everyone who came and supported us with Griffin and helped to make the event possible.
Be rest assured... TaffKirk Films will return!
