I work with filmmaker Pamela Robertson-Pearce in filming readings by poets from around the world published by Bloodaxe Books. Thirty of these films are featured on the world's first poetry DVD-book, IN PERSON: 30 POETS, published by Bloodaxe in May 2008 to make the press's 30th birthday. This features 6 hours of readings on two DVDs with an accompanying anthology containing all the work read by the poets. A second DVD-anthology featuring a further 35 poets will follow in 2013. We are continuing to post extracts from new films on Vimeo, so if you want to keep up with the latest postings, do add Neil Astley as a contact on Vimeo.
