‘Hola’ From Colombia & Online Shop Now Open

Rave On For The Avon has landed in Colombia…and I brought some gifts with me! And good news - you can now order them online!

I have come to a stunning part of Colombia with the British Council and Wildscreen Festival to screen Rave On For The Avon and deliver workshops for emerging filmmakers. Rave On For The Avon is a universal story of love and connection to rivers and it was a joy to mentor filmmakers along the beautiful Qindío river.

So pleased that I had a chance to dip in the river during my stay.

As we arrived, I presented the tote bags and stickers I had designed to the incredible team of Cine En Las Monañas Festival (Cinema in the Mountains) held in the town of Salento.

Andrea (above left), Festival Coordinator extraordinaire put her tote bag to use straight away when she took us to Solento’s stunning lookout point over the Andean Mountains. We saw hummingbirds and Greenjays and could hear the Quindío river rushing through the valley.

You can now buy our stickers, posters, beanies, patch and more on our website to further support this ‘indiest’ of independent films.

It filled me with pride add our WOW Festival Audience Award Winner laurel to our two poster designs. You can read about the creation of Bristol muralist Farrah Fortnham’s stunning poster design here.

I can’t wait to share more my time at this inspiring festival where, along with Wildscreen’s team, we screened the film, ran workshops with emerging filmmakers and developed gorgeous creative relationships for the future.
