I'm an award winning/commissioned writer looking to get his first feature produced. I work in TV Development & direct shorts [email protected]

Good luck to the final contestants tonight! I hope the 5 short animations I wrote and directed to inspire the 5-7 yr olds got the creative juices flowing https://t.co/ssmF73ICMO @BBCTheOneShow @ctvc @bbceducation

New Year, New perspective. I thought of this phrase when taking this photo of me and mum looking at her dog on the other side of the window. In many ways 2023 was a success but I agonize over what more I could've done. I'm trying to balance being proud but wanting more in 2024

With #christmas just around the corner, why not check out my radio play The Assassination of Santa.

It imagines an Angel Gabriel who’s gone rogue in a bid to deal with the over-commercialisation of Christmas

I am so proud of the new documentary I've made with such a brilliant crew, exec producer and in particular Bryony...

She shares her heartbreaking but hopeful story about living with cerebral palsy, PTSD and anxiety #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek

Sending my first X in ages (is that the name for a tweet now?) and feeling pretty good about getting my feature script optioned 👌🏻 But the real work starts now…

[Alastair Collinson @Uncharted_UK]

With the #coronation still in the air and #Eurovision there’s a lot of talk about Britishness - and apparently we have 4 official values according to the Gov - so I made this little doc, shot during the #Jubilee last yr https://t.co/7qLb3paU7Q

[Alastair Collinson @Uncharted_UK]

It’s lovely to get back from holiday and discover a producer is interested in you writing a new script! He’s shopping his first feature at #Cannes and I’m hoping he gets development funds so I can write his second 🤞

[Alastair Collinson @Uncharted_UK]

I’m super excited to make the list!

I’m personally thrilled about this; I got to make some @bbcbitesize films with young Jude last year, who brilliantly voiced ‘The Boy’. Plus it’s a beautiful film based on a beautiful book. Bravo!

He just seems like the nicest person ever. And The Mummy is in my top 10 movies ever

We wrote to the BBC Director General weeks ago outlining our concerns on the impartiality guidelines and Richard Sharp.

It’s now imperative that we have a clear and urgent answer: will the Chairman be asked to step back while investigations on his impartiality remain live?

I fucking hate these shitty collectables. A blight on the planet.

Undoubtedly Gizmo - well, the feminine side of me. My masculine side loves Jaws 4; a shark capable of avenging the other 3 sharks, Charles Bronson of the sea!

It's World Wildlife Day and we want to know your favourite film creature!

[Alastair Collinson @Uncharted_UK]

But I get to direct a great little documentary soon about Hidden Disabilities - I love writing but it’s so satisfying to actually get to make something! Having said that: agents out there, I love writing unproduced work endlessly. I swear…

[Alastair Collinson @Uncharted_UK]

I really want the screenwriting to get going this year (well, duh) but getting tired of producers giving me a one line idea then expecting a treatment for free that they believe they should own 🤔

[Alastair Collinson @Uncharted_UK]

The LOTR trilogy confirmed I wanted to be a filmmaker. Also, The Hobbit is better than people say! Will new films ever compare???

[Rotten Tomatoes 🍅 @RottenTomatoes]

New #LordOfTheRings films are in the works at Warner Bros.
