Toward the end of summer last year we (as in the Nylon we) made a series of films for PRSF’s New Music 20×12 project. PRSF have commissioned twenty eminent composers to each create a twelve minute piece of music to commemorate the London Olympic. This project is part of the London 2012 cultural olympiad. We [...]

Getting Organised
Thursday, January 12th, 2012
If you’re anything like me you will have come back to work after the christmas festivities about 20 I.Q. points worse off than before. You’ll probably also have a mountainous workload which all needs to be completed quick-smart. Can you see the inherent problem? Huge workload plus less intelligence? That’s right. You’re going to forget [...]
New Year Nylon
Monday, January 9th, 2012
It’s 2012, a year of massive celebrations in London. Less than half a year now till the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. The June festivities in recognition of HRH’s sixty years on the throne will only just have died down before the Olympics and Paralympics kick off in July. Here at Nylon, we got an early peak [...]

Dear Red Giant, I would like to take this opportunity to pledge my undying gratitude for your wonderful Magic Bullet suite. Where would I be without it? Erm…still grading the 20 short films that Nylon made for PRSF I suspect! Luckily I do have it and here I am writing to all of you about [...]
August in Nylon Land
Tuesday, August 30th, 2011
August has been plenty busy in Nylon films land! Annette has been traversing the UK from Hackney to Southampton to the Scottish Highlands filming some highly talented musicians.

Red Camera Blues
Thursday, August 11th, 2011
Despite the horrendous scenes happening in London and major cities, there is light at the end of the tunnel …for me. I say this because after weeks and weeks of having RED Camera blues, the sun is now shining on that front, and I feel my love for the format is slowly resurfacing. The thing [...]
From Post to Prod
Saturday, August 6th, 2011
This week, with great trepidation, I have begun to seep from the kingdom of post-production into the world of production. To whit, I have been conducting interviews and operating the camera and sound equipment that said interviews have been filmed with! I’d like to say it has been smooth running but I’m a terrible liar [...]
New Website
Saturday, August 6th, 2011
You’ll obviously be aware of the fact that we have a new website as you will be reading the blog on it but in case you haven’t navigated your way around it,take a look. We decided a few months ago that we needed a new and updated site and chose to use Best Served Cold [...]
Cupcakes and sofa’s

It’s a happy day at Nylon Films today. We took delivery of our lovely new sofa and celebrated with delicious cupcakes from buttercupcakeshop.co.uk. Yum yum! I can especially recommend the carrot cake variety! We’ve been slowly doing up our new offices here at Ugli campus since we moved in earlier this year and we are nearly done with the [...]
