Our First Short ND or Near Death filmed entirely on location at my home such that it is.... don't ask!! We really enjoyed making this film which doubled as a proof of concept for our production retreats which will be available shortly. The quality of the output given that I am a complete novice and I did the sound recording and boom via the mentoring of Alan Joyce and George John Kingsnorth.
This little gem has gone on to win multiple awards at festivals and gave me my first IMDb credits as producer, sound recording, Extra et al. why not give it a little watch and support us on our evolving journey.

Attached is a quick podcast which brings us back up to date from our latest 2 shorts "ND" and "GvH", we will be having a catch up chat weekly going forward which will probably also include Life, The Universe and Everything including its mother.
