Students Experience the Bright Lights

Losing Innocence is a new film being shot in Birmingham from Pretty Hate Productions; the original full length screenplay was written by and is now being directed by Matt Ford, Writer for Pretty Hate Productions.

The production company approached University College Birmingham looking for Specialist Hair and Media Make-Up students to work on the film and Foundation Degree students including Hannah Forbes (pictured at work on set) jumped at the chance to gain experience in film make-up.

Matt Ford when giving feedback on the students work said, “the students have been absolutely first rate every time they've been on board. Their work has been fantastic and they are a credit to the university”

The film which is being filmed in and around the Hall Green area of Birmingham is due to be released in February 2012 and more information can be found by visiting their website www.prettyhate.co.uk
