April 2008, the trades pick up a story about the marketing trailer shoot in Norfolk, UK.

Goblin Films is a Norwich based company, so publicity begins in the community. Part of the vision for Goblin Films is to bring a stronger film presence to the UK, and to involve talent of all sorts from our own back garden as it were.

With star talent involved, we expect to make serious waves in the world-wide film industry. And despite connecting with seasoned professionals for crew, opportunities will be made available to young people who are up and coming in the field.

Actors, crew people, and other talented people can find an outlet for creativity that is untarnished by the corporate film machine that Hollywood has become.

But this is no amateur operation. We are making high quality films for a world-wide market. Investors in Goblin Films can expect returns for the wallet as well as the local community.



The driving force behind Goblin Films is Denise Channing, an established writer with a feel for the entertainment market that comes form many years living in the midst of the industry in Los Angeles.

Watching the corporate machine churn out mediocre assembly-line films for too many years has inspired a revival in independent British film making. Small studios in London have grown in number radically in the last decade. A film revolution is waiting to happen.

The dynamic approach that Goblin Films is taking is the spark.

A new day for British filmmaking is happening, even now.

The day of the notorious Dragon's Den appearance, Denise Channing was interviewed by Roy Waller on BBC Radio Norfolk. Although the funding wasn't obtained from the reality game show, the attendant publicity and controversy on Internet sources created a publicity stir of its own. Denise was interviewed again on the morning show and ten minutes later by telephone by another station. More interviews followed both on radio and in the East Anglian newspapers. Even the IMDB messageboards on the title page for the film carried on extensive discussions about the planning that has been behind the project.

The interview before the programme tells more about the project than anything that made the edit on the actual episode did. But the publicity generated by the appearance brought public attention to the film as well as the book and attracted the attention of a Los Angeles distributor.
