The Seven Wives Promotional Film is one step closer to completion. Last week director Jennifer Chislett and producer Chris Fenner worked along side editor David McSkimming to select the best clips from over 4 hours of footage taken last month.

Chris Fenner said "The whole film shoot produced some really fantastic work and it hasn't been easy selecting the best bits, because it's all pretty much great! The next few weeks are going to be very exciting and both myself and Jennifer are looking forward to the edits that Dave is currently working on."
