Monday 10th January 6:30pm
Panel discussion: 60 minutes
Audience Q&A: 15 minutes
Zoom

Your short film has finally screened at a festival. You’ve made the most of the festival experience: you’ve seen your short on the big (or virtual) screen, networked with other filmmakers, and made invaluable industry connections. But what happens now that the party’s over?

Their January Lab panel discussion is all about what happens after your short film’s festival run is over. Learn about post-festival distribution options, including getting your film screened on online platforms and streaming services. Our panel of industry professionals will talk about building on the connections you’ve made at the festival and how to best use your new network to support future projects and career development. You’ll also learn how to use your festival success to promote and pitch the project that comes next.

I’m also partial to Shaun Parkes, as he delivered the best close-up acting of the year – LA TIMES

I’m also partial to Shaun Parkes, as he delivered the best close-up acting of the year in the final moments of “Mangrove,” the “Small Axe” courtroom drama. I respect Sutherland’s eyebrow work as much as anyone. But not if it means Parkes doesn’t receive his due. – Glen Whipp

Shaun Parkes as Frank Crichlow delivers purity in his portrayal – VARIETY

In London Flair PR on July 13, 2021 at 1:50 pm

It’s been heavily agreed that “Mangrove,” the first entry of Steve McQueen’s “Small Axe” is the best of the five-film limited series, feeling the most cinematic and layered narrative structure. Shaun Parkes as Frank Crichlow delivers purity in his portrayal, and with his counterpart Letitia Wright likely one of the favorites in supporting actress, he could sneak in alongside her. – Clayton Davies

Consider the mesmerizing Shaun Parkes – Vulture Magazine

In London Flair PR on July 13, 2021 at 1:46 pm

With their premieres at the New York Film Festival and deeply cinematic structures, the films of Steve McQueen’s Small Axe series arguably fit better in the Academy Awards than the Emmy Awards, but we don’t make the rules. The fact is that Amazon submitted them for Emmy consideration, and they should pop up in a few places on Emmy nomination morning — most are predicting nods for Letitia Wright and John Boyega. This is a plea to dig a little deeper and also consider Wright’s co-star in Mangrove, the mesmerizing Shaun Parkes. He plays Frank Crichlow, the owner of a Trinidadian restaurant called the Mangrove in Notting Hill that faces racist harassment from the London police. Eventually charged with the rest of the Mangrove Nine, Parkes’s Frank fights back against the system that has been rigged against them. Parkes finds just the right balance of frustration and fire in one of 2020’s best performances in film, TV, or whatever you want to call it. – Brian Tallerico
