Roger Ebert
"Kids at film festivals tell me, "I want to become a movie director," and I tell them, "That's your first mistake-to word it that way. Say, 'I am a movie director.' Give yourself the title. No one else will. Then go off and make a movie."
William Shakespeare
"Be not afraid of greatness; some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them."

Welcome to Enroll Productions
The Creative Home of Writer/Director Neil Rolland
Neil Rolland is a writer/director/creative residing in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Neil decided he wanted to make films the night he saw Donnie Darko at the Cameo Cinema in Edinburgh on the Halloween of 2002. In the middle of a degree at the time that was going no where, Neil decided to drop out and go back to college.
Neil has studied TV Production and Film at Stevenson College Edinburgh, Falmouth College of Arts in Cornwall and finally graduating from Queen Margaret University Edinburgh.
After becoming disillusioned with the 'industry' and loosing confidence in himself, he decided to quit filmmaking. Two difficult years followed but through the encouragement of friends, an arguement with Paddy Considine and the realisation that he could be whoever he wanted to be, Neil has come back with a stronger passion and a more focused and individual vision for the kind of filmmaking artist he would like to become.
Through this website you will be able to follow Neil as he hones his cinematic voice.
Neil explores stories which subvert the audiences preconceptions of narrative form. After making the usual horror/gangster fare at University, Neil now makes films of great complexity and his most recent effort Abbeyhill has been described as "a mini Cache".
