Also, Chatroom has a Twitter that I failed to mention in there: @ChatroomMovie.
And if you Facebook Chatroom, a page comes up.

The Production/Distribution Of Chatroom.

Production.

Chatroom was shot in early 2010, at Shepperton Studios in Surrey. Some of the scenes were filmed on-location, in Camden, London Zoo (which I think is in, or near, Camden...), Charing Cross Station, Ealing, Regent's Canal, Staines (Surrey), Wimbledon and Primrose Hill. [This is completely irrelevant but I just discovered if you type in 'the production of Chatroom' into Google, my pre-production issues slideshare is on the first page of results, Google famous~]. There were many people involved in the production of Chatroom and, as we speak, I'm trying to find a magnifying glass to find out who they are (the text on the back of the DVD is so ridiculously tiny, and IMDb want me to pay them money to find out). There are about a billion producers and co-producers on this film (even though three are credited on the DVD case): Maya Amsellem, Katherine Butler, Hannah Farrell, Mark Folingo, Sharon Harel, Laura Hasting-Smith, Andrew Litvin, Alison Owen, Tania Reichert-Facilides, Eve Schoukroun, Faye Ward and Paul Trijbits. Why they have so many, I do not know. It seems like a waste to me. Casting was done by Nina Gold. The director of photography was Benoit Delhomme, and the editing was by Masahiro Hirakubo. There are tons more people involved in the production, so instead of listing them all, I will post a link here (I discovered I was clicking the wrong button on IMDb, technical genius I am): http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1319704/fullcredits

Distribution.

Distribution was done by many different companies worldwide, but the UK distributor was Revolver Films, in conjunction with West End Films (West End Films did the world wide distribution). Revolver, who were acquired in September 2010, were given funding of £200 000 by the UK Film Council to distribute the film. It was released on 22nd December, 2010. Revolver (according to Wikipedia, which of course makes it accurate) planned to do a special online marketing campaign for the film. They did do a "take-over" of a few websites, and Facebook pages and Twitters were made for the official film. The film was premiered initially in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. The DVD was released by Revolver Films in 2011.

Ruby Film Productions

Ruby Film and Television, founded in 1999 by Alison Owen in London, is the company that produced Chatroom. Seven producers work with Ruby as their sole job: Paul Trijbits, Alison Owens, Faye Ward, Hannah Farrell, Jenny Frayn, Helen Gregory and Sophie Vickers. They are based in London (Lloyd Baker Street, which I read incorrectly as Baker Street and the Sherlock Holmes/Gerry Rafferty parts of my brain exploded). Their films/TV series have won 22 awards, including the Emmy Awards for Temple Grandin (2011). A full list of all their awards can be found here. They started out as a film company, making Rat in 2000, but branched out a year later to make Is Harry On The Boat?

The company does not use the same directors; each film has a different one, although in more than one case (Love And Hate/Love And Other Disasters/Fishtank) the writer has also directed the film. They've made some lower budget films, and some quite well known (The Other Boleyn Girl/Tamara Drew/Jane Eyre). They also tend to do a lot of films based on other works (Chatroom/Tamara Drewe/Brick Lane/Jane Eyre etc.)

They don't seem to have one type of film they do more than others; they do romantic comedies, dramas, comedies, thrillers and horrors.
