2025-05-21 16:52:40 +0000 UTC View Post"Run!!!" VFX Process Demo
When time is short, we need to get creative with how we shoot things. In this instance, we didn't have the time to take the team all the way up to the moors, light and shoot a scene, so we did what any indie operation would do next - we blagged it on a green screen. Sorta.
Step 1: Film the shot
Again, lack of time to get these in, so we used the green screen were possible and shot downwards to the floor. Normally, we'd have a much larger green cloth do do the job,...

The simplicity of the Season 1 promo (https://youtu.be/LV461jEnnBI ) meant that we only needed a small selection of shots in order to put it together. Though, as with most things, there were shots either replaced with alternative takes or left on the cutting room floor altogether.
These were also instances were Danni would "Silent Scream" in order not to ruin her voice - once the edit was locked, we th...

Tales from Davidstown: Blood and Chains is a gripping one-shot set in the shadows of London, 2010. When Katie wakes shackled and disoriented in a derelict mechanic’s workshop, she’s forced to piece together the chain of events that led her there. As she recounts her story with dry wit and growing unease, dark memories resurface, one...
2025-05-21 07:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostColour Grading
One of the tricky parts of film is the way that we can effectively colour grade a shot to not only match the mood and location, but also the time of day. Here we can demonstrate taking a particular lighting setup and working it into something that feels as if the scene takes place in the night-time hours, one step at a time.
2025-05-20 20:37:44 +0000 UTC View PostMake-Up SFX Test - Practical Hair Application Test
This test marks our first experiment with the application of "hair growth" in the style of American Werewolf in London - that is, taking the most amount of the hair effect we could apply and then gradually reducing, reversing the order of the shots in an edit.
This is purely in camera with no additional post work added, baring a quick colour grade for presentation.
Turns out, this kind of make-up application takes HOURS, and so it's pointing us in the direction that pre-made suits...

As with the previous scene, this is pre-ADR.
But it's great to finally start seeing these characters on screen right?
2025-05-20 19:37:50 +0000 UTC View PostTest Scene - Jess and Emily - Episode 5
Test scene between Emily and Jess (as heard originally in Episode 5) - the dialogue has been cut right back for the purpose of the test but you should be able to reckoning things fairly well!
The sound is pre ADR, meaning that it's not a clear as it would be in a final version. This generally is the case for the things we shot for the tests in May.

The heat is rising in Davidstown. As the moon looms, tensions ignite and long-held secrets threaten to surface. Emily finds herself at a crossroads, grappling with forces she can barely comprehend, while Jess is drawn deeper into a web of mysteries that challenge her understanding of reality.
In this pivotal episode, alliances are tested, and the line between friend and foe blurs. As the town's shadows grow darker, the choices made now will have lasting consequences. 2025-04-29 21:00:13 +0000 UTC View Post
