ABOUT THE PROJECT
Following on from the success of Daisy, myself and producing partner Nathalie Miles have decided that we're not quite finished when it comes to Daisy.

A film like this isn't exactly the most conventional of films, it's a little bit out there and somewhat controversial. The thing I loved most about the first film is that it got people talking. I don't want to make films that people forget about the next day, Daisy 1 was a love it or hate it film, Daisy 2 will aim to be exactly he same.

I honestly believe that crowdfunding is the way forward when it comes to making movies. Veronica Mars and Zach Braff have proved that seeking private investment or going through the studio system isn.t necessarily the best way to go. Obviously I'm no Zach Braff, but then I'm not asking for two million dollars. This is the future of film making and we want you to be part of it.
WHAT'S THE STORY?
The follow up to cult hit Daisy, the film hailed as being “The greatest film ever had about the adult film industry”. The sequel will follow Daisy as she travels to Berlin for the biggest Erotica festival in the world, Venus.
Following on from Daisy, we once again delve into what life is like living in the porn industry. Daisy hasn't left the industry and is heading to Berlin for the Venus Erotica Festival. We'll be going from glamorous to grotesque, strange, fascinating, offensive, absurd and sometimes funny moments all at once, this film will focus more on the brand of Daisy Rock and will give us an insight into what really happens behind the scenes of the porn industry.
THE FESTIVAL
The festival held yearly in Berlin with some 290 exhibitors and more than 29,000 visitors. Press and industry representatives from around the world travel to the convention for business, pleasure and the all important Venus Awards.
PRODUCT PLACEMENT
It's no secret that product placement is huge when it comes to making films, just look at SKYFALL. Heineken paid 50 Million for Bond to have a sip of its beer, literally a six second shot. We want to give other people the chance to utilise the benefits of product placement in DAISY 2 but for a fraction of the price.
THE SOUNDTRACK
Mike Murray did the soundtrack for the first film and will be coming on board for Daisy 2 as well. I first worked with Mike on my debut feature film Swimming in Circles and this will be our third collaboration together. His music is very fitting when it comes to a film like this, he has the skill of capturing the right tone with every song and I can't wait to see what he does with this film.

WHY CROWDFUND?
So I totally understand that a film like this isn't for everyone, but there no film is for everyone. Personally I feel British film doesn't have the most enthusiastic attitude towards sex in film. The fact that an erect penis automatically gets you an 18 certificate is a little ridiculous, especially when a film like The Hunger Games is released, which is essentially about kids murdering each other only gets a twelve rating!!! I've had the experience of pitching this project to a lot of people and have met some really negative and somewhat rude people, Channel 4 I'm talking to you. I don't want to make this film with anyone like them, I want to make it with people who believe in it, people like you! I'm guessing you're interested if you've got upto this point ;) yep I just used a winky face!
