It was an absolute delight to be nominated for a Writers' Guild Award for Best Online Comedy for Spokke. Here's writers Tim and Shaun in their Sunday Best for the ceremony last week. Scandi jumpers were unfortunately not in the dress-code.

We've been really lucky to pop-up with Spokke at a bunch of amazing film festivals in the last few months, and very excited to pick up a Writers' Guild Awards' Nomination for Best Online Comedy too! Fingers and pedals crossed for the ceremony in Jan!

The writing, acting, directing and editing team of Spokke are all improvisers based out of London's The Free Association Theatre. This informs the way we work collaboratively and flexibly on-set and establishes a common tone of voice. We'd cast from these connections.
Even so, we can't work in a vacuum, and we'd love to make some new connections on the technical side of things especially. We got really lucky availability-wise with our Spokke team, so we're keen to meet and build a pool of more cinematography, sound and production legends to collaborate with.
