Reeltime Pictures’ Sil and the Devil Seeds of Arodor continues to collect awards from film festivals around the world.

Director and producer Keith Barnfather confirmed that Christopher Ryan has won “Best Supporting Actor” at the Tagore Film Festival for his portrayl of Lord Kiv;  Creature Make-Up Artist (and head of Make-up) Begonia Martin has been recognised by the Moody Crab Film Fest for her incredible work on Sil; Phil Newman has won a second award for Costume Design at Moody Crab; and the story picked up an Outstanding Achievement Award – Web Media at the Sand Dance International Festival. That brings the grand total up to 34.

Barnfather told Sci-Fi Bulletin: “The continuing success of SIL AND THE DEVIL SEEDS OF ARODOR at film festivals worldwide is testament to the incredible work put in by the entire cast and crew. I’m absolutely delighted that Chis Ryan has been recognised for his incredible performance as Lord Kiv and equally pleased to see Begona “BB” Martin get an award for her amazing work on the creature make-up. Phil Newman’s costume design (as well as his overall production design of the studio sets) for SIL was, I believe, pivotal in making the production a success. So for him to win a second award is just reward!”

The Moody Crab Film Fest also gave awards to an earlier Reeltime production, The White Witch of Devil’s End: star Damaris Hayman won Best Monologue, while Linzi Gold won Best Title Song.

“When the opportunity came up to put Damaris Hayman forward for her seminal preformance as Olive Hawthorne in THE WHITE WITCH OF DEVIL’S END, I jumped at the chance,” Barnfather explained. “Her “talking head” monologue is nothing less than captivating.” I spoke to Damaris yesterday and she expressed joy and amusement winning her first film festival award at the age of 91!

“I loved Linzi’s song Strange Beauty from the moment I heard it. To have it as our title song for the drama series and make the music video was a joy. I’m delighted for Linzi that it’s finally been given the credit it deserves.”
