Sun, Sand, Sea and a lot more besides ...
Nine years ago I 'retired' and decided to spend the rest of my days relaxing on the beautiful island of Cyprus or to be more precise, The Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. We are one of the few remaining divided European countries.
It wasn't long before I realised that this was a film-makers paradise and set up a company, more as a hobby, to promote Northern Cyprus to the film and TV industry and to offer all the back up services required. This hobby has now turned into a full-time business organising everything from permits, locations, actors, extras, crew and equipment and all other logistical work.
It would take many more pages to explain all of the benefits of filming in Northern Cyprus so, if I may, I would like to direct you to my web page, www.northcyprusfilm.com (still under construction, but that's another story) or the North Cyprus Film Facebook page where you can get an idea of whats on offer. Also check out two films made here: "Race 2" (in part) or "Code Name Venus" shot entirely here, and in which I had one of the leading support roles as the Chief of Police.
I am also in the process of writing my own feature film which we hope to go into production in the spring of next year. It is a fast-moving drama set in modern times but with strong links to old mythology and the life of Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love.
Should you have any further interest in North Cyprus, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Happy filming!
