CATH KIDSTON

Take an empty studio lot in West London, a football pitch-sized piece of turf and a giant globe of artificial sunshine (the only one of its kind in London). Mix in novelty knits, groomed dogs, mischievous kids and a pop-up tent or two. Decorate liberally with elaborate cakes, bunches of flowers and a generous sprinkling of good, honest Cath Kidston fun.

YOUNG SOULS

2011, BW & Colour, 10mins

Young Souls is an exciting, up-tempo spin into the world of the cult 'scene' of Northern Soul. Opening to the iconic 'Cigarette Ashes' track, Young Souls

explodes onto the screen taking us under the skin of the Northern Soul scene. It is morning and a vintage car blasts down motorways, charges across rural landscapes and snakes through British suburban streets. Scully, the film's main protagonist drops his friends home after a night of profound meaning.

Young Souls retraces Scully's 'night before' with epic dance scenes and stylish cast, of real Northern Soul devotees.
