London 48hour Sci fi film challenge

I've been a busy busy girl for the last 6 months or so, lots of travelling, and film making, and working hard at my new job, which isn't really new anymore, I've been at Fxhome for well over a year now!

So i've finally given myself a chance to write on my blog, and i'm hoping that you'll find it all pretty interesting stuff!

Back in April myself and some friends entered the London 48hour Sci fi film challenge. I produced and art directed the short. We tried to prepare as much as possible before the shoot, but unfortunately we were unable to rework our script to the title Crowded City, it was a risk we decided to take, and i'm sure the judges found it highly amusing that the film didn't adhere to the comp rules!

Here is the result.



I also built a cable cam that runs on a 30ft static climbing rope, this was very important for the forest chase scene, my favourite part of the film! I'm also trying to think of new ways to utilise this awesome piece of equipment in any future projects!

Here's the cable cam



And here's me hauling it up the rope



And here it is in action!



If you're intersted in how to build your own cable cam i got the instructions from these cool guys!
