If you don’t already know about Virgin Media Shorts then you should! It is definitely one of the best festivals in the UK out there today.  So with that in mind, we have entered our nice little summer flick The Emotionless Flower into it. It’s never a good idea to gt your hopes up for festival entries, so I just hope they see it as a happy feel good shorts like I do.

Here is the link directly to the short… http://www.virginmediashorts.co.uk/films/entry/344173/the-emotionless-flower-3

Please check it out, log on and vote if you like too. Every little helps! Then if we even get close to winning we can hire all you talented people to make our next epic!

Ciao for now.

New Office + New Website Coming Soon!

Uncategorized — Stake @ 1:46 pm

Hi everyone, we have been thinking here at the Stake team and we have some great news; a brand new office is being formed where we feel we can really be in touch with everyone we need. All I can say right now is that its going to be in Salford Quays (the place to be!) and that we will be moving there in the next few weeks.

Our next exciting news is that a new website will be here replacing this old mess your seeing now. We feel it’s definately time for a new look. So keep your eyes peeled to see it!

Video News:

We are working hard entering a number of our films this year into festivals across the UK. So fingers crossed with that one! As well as that, to keep your eyes wet we have made a nice little animation for you.

See you on the new site!
