Adam Palmer is a multi-award winning filmmaker, based in the West Midlands. He is a member of the BFI NETWORK x BAFTA Crew 2021 scheme, and recently a BAFTA BFI Film Academy Mentor. His first film, the 16mm short film ‘CARRIAGES’ went on to win ‘Best Comedy’ (including nominations for ‘Best Screenplay’ and ‘Best Film’) at Screentest Festival 2014, and secured distribution in Japan via Pacific Voice Inc. His next short, ‘ANSWER‘, a no-budget film created in just two days, was recognised worldwide at various film festivals, including Toronto Lift-Off Film Festival 2018, and took home ‘Best Film‘ at the Breakout Film Festival 2018. 2020 saw the release of ‘JUDAS‘, his most recent project starring Nick Preston (Ladhood, Our Girl) and Lawrence Walker (Find Me in Paris, Our Girl), which premiered online with Directors Notes. The film has received high praise from various outlets, and screened in November at the BAFTA-Qualifying Aesthetica Film Festival 2020. Adam is currently developing a number of projects, from short films to music videos, as well as writing his debut feature film, ‘TENBY‘.
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.
