A few weeks ago I was involved with an intriguing project that would be submitted to a competition.
Gully Moore, a director whom I'd worked with for a TV pilot earlier on in the year, called and asked me to do sound for a 48 hour film project. As I was available, and with no social engagements, that weekend, I agreed to take on the challenge.
A couple of days later we were en-route to Froome, Somerset, with a handful of ideas and a basic plot outline. We slept, briefly, then proceeded to film scenes that would make up a five minute short film. We would be back at home within 25 hours, with Gully and, DoP, Oli Clubb left to complete the edit and effects work. The film was ready with time to spare and handed in before the 7:30pm deadline on the Sunday.
In the duration of that short mini adventure, in which I also met the Mayor of Froome, and enjoyed the annual Froome parade, we made a film that went on to win the "Audience Choice Award" at the screening. A fact I'm very proud of.
The film is available for all here:
