JANEKS - BARMAN
KELLY
CREW
Lesley Evans & Mol Smith
Mol, a frustrated writer, started making movies in 2011. Many shorts and two feature films later, he is a director, producer, writer, shooter, and editor. He believes although it's tough carrying out so many roles in the making of a film, it is the best way to create movies, which have compelling stories at their core, and turn out as films possessing acceptable production quality values, when working with limited budgets.
Quote: "If you want to tell stories, make sure you start with a blank sheet of good quality paper, and ink that doesn't fade!
Get that right, and people might be able to read it! Movies need the same basic materials. What is written on the sheet may be rubbish or brilliant, but if no-one can read it, without distraction, it's rubbish anyway!"
Janeks Babidorics
Lesley is Mol's life partner: his mistress in bed and his mistress on the film set. She adores the people who come to work together and looks after everyone with love, care, and attention.
On set, she looks after much of the continuity, sound recording, dress and costume, and make-up, ​and helps all the parts of film-making glue together.
She says, "Mol can be a demanding and frustrating guy in his passion to create compelling work with such limited resources, but he always accomplishes what he sets out to do. And I love that about him. I know absolute joy spending time with the cast and I feel the process of making a film, although challenging, is a rich and rewarding experience."
Janeks is a young theatre-trained actor venturing into films to add to his widening skills, experience, and natural talent.
A serious and commited studier of the actors art, he comes highly recommended to our team of soul creators for the characters in our movie. We are proud to have him in our team.
Sophie Renee
Sophie is another young actor taking on a very challenging role as Kelly in our movie. Trained in Oxford and Livepool, this will be her first leading role in a major feature film.
Kelly brings with her an ultra positive 'can-do' will-do attitude along with warmth and surburb social skills which helps cement together a dedicated and friendlty tream.
Dominic O'Flynn
ESCORT CLIENT
Dominic has played main roles including a main lead role in both of my two feature films and starred in a lot of my shorts.
He is an accomplished actor. His generosity to help out an old film making buddy (namely little old me) by playing a camero role in The Lorelei, I'm sure will bring that special extra touch of magic to this, my third feature.
I am so pleased to have him aboard.
