Violent Violet Productions

Welcome

Violent Violet Productions is the British short film company of Jo Tidbury. My aim is to make beautiful, entertaining and provocative films.

Founded in 2001 I have made several short films which have shown at Cinematheque, Brighton; Northern Lights Festival, Newcastle; Harbour Lights, Southampton; Ladyfest @ the Cube, Bristol;, BFI, Southbank as well at various other screenings in the UK and America.

To watch my films go to my youtube channel. I have also recently opened a shop on Etsy showcasing the square photographs I have taken with my Lomography Diana+ toy camera.

'Between the City and the Sea' was shown at the first-ever Shooting People Shoot-Out, August 2004 and the Shoot-Out Tour, November 2004. You can read more about me and watch 'Between the City and the Sea' on the BBC Film Network. The 2006 summer edition of Aesthetica magazine has a review of 'Between the City and the Sea' which you can download here.

Issue 29 (Volume 5 Number 5) of Film Int magazine has a review of 'Midst of Paradise' which you can read here.

'Bird Feeder' (featuring Olga Fedori from the terrifying 'Mum and Dad' and "Wolf Man") written by Ben Pester and commissioned as part of Screen South's Digital Shorts strand was shown at Italy's 4th Opere Nuove/No Words film festival and Cine City, Brighton. Brit Films are now showing 'Bird Feeder' on their short film channel.
