About Me

HalfArsedFilms have been making short comedy films since 2002. We are Rob Johnstone, Stuart Sharp, and Joel Henderson, plus a loose collective of wonderful people/friends/family who get involved and never complain. We have picked up a couple of film festival awards/nominations, and continue to break through the usual 'post-uni, art-film, life is sad/shit/unintelligable' short film festival fodder that you have to sit through to find little gems like ours (bless them for having a go though).

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

ACTORS/ACTRESSES/TECHNICAL FOLK. If you are interested in getting involved with HalfArsedFilms get in touch and tell us what you can do. We encourage freedom and creativity (all ideas are equal, it's just that some are funnier). We generally improvise our scripts and all suggestions on-set are met with warmth and generosity (or a raised eyebrow).

My Blog

"Youre gonna need a bigger boat"

This little blog is a serious one. It is dedicated to the memory of Roy Scheider, who died yesterday aged 75. People who know me well, know that I love film... and you might be thinking that this is f...

Women... Schwimmin!

Right then... Women! This one might be a little self-indulgent. A wallow in self pity and morose reflection that, at some point, turns to angry misogyny... although, I'll try to avoid that. My track r...

Adolf Hitler and a hand mower.

In 1996, while writing his gardening magnum opus 'What Not To Grow', Adolf Hitler had a relapse. Up until that point, his had been a sedate retirement. His days would generally involve a gentle potte...

The Fat License.

I have been trying to give up smoking (he says... settling in and lighting one up). Now... I know you are probably thinking: "I don't care" and if I hadn't just lit one I would respond with:...

Are my blogs offensive?

I have been told that my blogs are offensive! More than this I have been told that my blogs suggest that I have mental problems; that reading them makes you cringe; that it's not a serious outle...

My day out with death.

So now... in the light of day, I have been able to digest my weekend and, most especially, my trip to the Imperial War Museum. It is true that I was reluctant to go, but because we hadn't seen Ir...
