This short film was shot the week before the official 2020 uk lockdown.

A lot has happened since then...in case you haven't noticed 😉 but I was very lucky during the pandemic to be able to still work with people like Ark Indie, Be good films and N-Act Theatre in Schools to make creative content from home! Lots of voice over work, audio stories, corporate recordings Traffic and travel bulletins and more.

Thank you fellow creatives for keeping me going and much love to my supporters for keeping their chins up and working so hard.

Ark Indie Productions, in association with , are pleased to announce new feature film ‘SWIM’, written by Wendy Morgan . A brand new story about women and their love of open water swimming, featuring an array of fantastic actors from British Film, TV and Theatre including Annette Badland, Wendi Peters, Abigail McKern, Carol Royle, Sarah Berger and Danielle Flett.

Artist Georgia, on a book commission by the coast, is reluctantly drawn into a communal world of women who swim, as deeply personal relationships form, between them all and the sea. A warming story of friendship - although…SOME LIKE IT COLD!

‘SWIM’ is in pre-production, aiming to raise the required budget to go into production by late summer/autumn of 2021.
