Ben Slotover and Paul Elliott

Are Blunt Productions..

As Blunt Productions, Ben Slotover and Paul Elliott have been using the contents of their attics, charity shop stock, tomato juice and bits of string to make low budget and zero budget films for the last seven years. Despite a total lack of funding or investment they have simply come up with more and more ambitious methods of making a film look bigger while keeping expenditure as close to zilch as possible.

Some of their work has been televised, including a half hour science fiction comedy they wrote for Channel 4 in 2002, but their home is on the margins of taste, budget and feasibility. They have made Kung Fu films, Science Fiction, Horror, 3D, Drama and lots and lots of Comedy. Since the beginning of 2003 they have been putting on screenings of their (and other filmmakers) work alongside live comedy sketches and as much other weirdness as they can get away with. From conception to production to exhibition, Slotover and Elliott have done it all themselves and are ready for more.
