1917

As part of work at The Film and TV Charity, I was a key part of the team working to deliver the revival of the Royal Film Performance.

In 2019 the charity worked in partnership with eOne to deliver a premiere of the Sam Mendes film ‘1917’, alongside Amblin and Neal Street Productions, which took over Leicester Square, London and was attended by Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, raising funds for the charity.

  • Wrote and issued a series of press announcements in close coordination with partners, achieving positive trade and consumer coverage.

  • Produced a bespoke 90 page brochure for the film, in coordination with the Royal Family, studios, and talent, writing all copy and managing the sign-off of creative options with Neal Street Productions in the US.

I am delighted that the World Premiere of 1917 will take place in my hometown, London, in aid of The Film and TV Charity. I couldn’t have made the film without the skill and dedication of the many talented craftspeople working in the UK industry – the very people who The Film and TV Charity does so much to support on a daily basis. This film is a hugely personal project for me, and it’s an honor to have it chosen as the 71st Royal Film Performance.
