Co-operative Film-Makers’ Festival

According to the Strathspey Herald, Matthew Lewis will be opening the Co-operative Film-Makers’ Festival on October 8 and 9 at Bradford’s renowned National Media Museum.

Harry Potter star, Matthew Lewis, who plays the comical character Neville Longbottom, will open this year’s festival and take part in a question and answers session for festival-goers.

Young film-makers will also have the chance to make an animation with David Bunting, who has worked on Shaun the Sheep and Disney’s Tigger The Movie, and to find out how to get jobs in film and TV.

For further information about the festival, email info@youngfilm-makers.coop or phone (0161) 246 2216 for a programme.

Matt to Release Balloons Tomorrow

Indie London is reporting that Thursday, September 24, 2009 WB will launch 1,000 balloons  for a contest to visit the Deathly Hallows set:

Each balloon released will have a card attached featuring a unique code that will entitle the holder to register online at www.warnerbros.co.uk/harrypotterballoon between October 1, 2009 and December 4, 2009 for entry into the grand prize draw.

The first prize winner will embark on a tour of the Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows film set before they head off to make-up and wardrobe.  They will then step on to a set for a unique and exciting filming experience, where they will be filmed in the role of one of the magical framed “moving” portrait characters that have adorned the walls of Hogwarts in all of the Harry Potter films.

Apparently the launch takes place at 1pm at the Millennium Bridge and Matthew and Evanna Lynch will be releasing the balloons.

Thanks TLC!

Leeds Big Fun Run

The Leeds Big Fun Run was today and Matthew has updated his Twitter with a little bit of information about it.  I am searching for photos and other news about this so stay tuned!

  • Leeds Big Fun Run today. I’m sure I’ll be fine but wish me luck 😉
  • I was running with a lad called Jack who has Mobius Syndrome. What an inspiration. We completed in roughly 40 minutes.
  • Erm although I’ve run the race it’s still not too late to sponsor me. Just as soon as I figure out how!

New 2007 Event!

Thanks to LadyLongbottom for finding a new article from October 2007 when Matt visited Staffs University!  The article also comes with 2 new photos, see those here in the gallery!

That Tom and Katy Thing has been produced by third year students studying the Advanced Studio Production module.

Matthew, who is about to begin filming the sixth film – Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince – in December, said he was delighted to work with the students.  He has appeared alongside the likes of Robbie Coltrane, Gary Oldman and Maggie Smith since starting out in the films as an 11-year-old.”I’ve sat next to Alan Rickman in the canteen and then watched him transform himself for the camera,” he said. “It’s fantastic to learn from actors who have such great ability.”

That Tom and Katy Thing is the second programme the students have made in the past two years and was streamed live on the internet.
