A getaway driver must wait three minutes for a gang of burglars to return to his car before making their escape.

There’s just one problem...

He’s absolutely desperate for a piss.

Fire up the gambas... 🍤 🔥 SHARKS IN COLWYN BAY is now on YouTube and Vimeo! Check it out via the link in bio!

While it toiled away in private festival screenings over the last two years, we ran an impressive run of twelve Official Selections (plus one Honourable Mention and two Semi-Finalists), including some BAFTA Cymru-Qualifying festivals such as Carmarthen Bay and FOCUS Wales in Wrexham, just down the road (kinda!) from Colwyn Bay!

Had an absolute blast directing this short film and still very proud of what we made. Another massive thank you to everyone who worked on the film. Credits down below:

This is no laughing matter. FULL TANK has been selected for Funny Life Festival 2026 @thefunnylifefilmfestival!

A getaway driver must wait three minutes for a gang of burglars to return to his car before making their escape. There’s just one problem... He’s desperate for a piss.

Our short will be playing in the “Shorts 4: All in a Day's Work" block on Saturday, March 21st, followed by a Q&A! You'll laugh so hard you'll... well, you know.

Thank you to the Funny Life team for the selection! Congratulations to the cast and crew!

A peek behind the scenes at the goofy ADR process for the short film “Full Tank”.

With filmmaking, sometimes production audio doesn’t quite come out how you hoped. This can be down to noise, interference, or it’s just not possible to position the microphone in the ideal place.

Even on a small budget, scheduling a day for ADR is always worthwhile, regardless if you’re just doing it in someone’s flat. Getting those extra lines, non-verbal noises and voiceover pays off a lot in post-production. It also gives you a good excuse to record your cast doing proper odd stuff like this.

FULL TANK will screen its UK and WORLD PREMIERE at the Crystal Palace International Film Festival @crystalpalacefilmfestival!

Thank you so much to the Crystal Palace team for the selection. Congratulations to the cast and crew!

Photographed @fay.davies, @anjacilia and @harrietterrr on the set of @csarnold10 “Girls Together”. Great to see this film receiving some much deserved festivals love.

Time to give some flowers to the cast of “Full Tank”.

Jake Curran @jakecurrano, who played our badass urinary-incontinent getaway driver. Such a joy to work with and to see stretching the extremities of a man in need of a piss. I suspect his method involved chugging litres of water between takes, he refuses to divulge his trade secrets. Hire this man.

Harry French the mensch @harry_french99. Class act from top to bottom. Brings such intensity to this jumpy amateur burglar.

Finally, so much fun getting Tony Barroso @tonybarrosofilms and Kelly Diapere @kellydiapere involved, two fellow London Film School grads. I laugh every time I see Tony scramble around that tiny Mini.

Tons of fun to work with every one of them.

Thank you @buleng000 for the stills!
