Well this is a big project that I havent really mentioned much of on here yet, and that is our short drama that we are going to be filming in a few weeks time.
The project started before Xmas with the help of Sean Geogehan we were put into 2 teams and I was allocated director of ours.
We set about work trying to find a script, but as we didnt have much work set over the holidays I ended up writing one. It was inspired by the book The Pact by Jodi Picoult in which a girl who where everything seems normal and happy is actually really struggling and the story revolves around how she has killed herself. I took this and thought, what if she had written a note and someone found it?
This is where the 1st draft of the script came from, a mother finding her daughters suicide note and the consequences of this. I wont give any of the story away as I will share the film with you when it is done! But needless to say the script has gone through several re-drafts and though it is very different from the original, most of the elements and deeper meanings of the original are still there.
We are at the stage now of finding locations and actors with filming scheduled for the last week of February!
Will update this as we make our progress :)
