A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Although introduced to performing from the age of four, she took a bit of a hiatus to complete a Zoology Degree but quickly realised that science and academia was not really for her. In 2003 Kate set up Actors at Work Productions as a banner for various creative projects linked mostly to Stage and Film work. Early work was mainly filming theatre shows. At the same time Kate continued to grow as an actor, moving from mostly musical theatre into the world of film. Kate directed her first narrative film in 2005, a short called 'Into the Darkness'. The horsemen was another short film she directed and then of course there is Born of Hope. She has worked on a number of films, experiencing many different jobs behind the camera, including stand in and doubling work on major films like Gulliver's Travels and Harry Potter.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
