The Sand Animation Studio has been set up!! (.. in Jamie's sister's bedroom...)



Wednesday, 7 September 2011

Thank you Skyborn Crew!

It's nearly a week since we wrapped and we're still not sure what hit us!!

With the exception of poor John and Robin, who have moved straight on to their TV Grad Shoots, we have all had a good sleep and time to view all of the rushes in a calm and collected manner! They look positively electrifying! 

Jamie is now setting up his sand animation kit in Scotland, and I am trawling through the accounts settling up with everyone! (If you haven't invoiced my for your petrol, please do so now!)

Kitty Walker, our lovely stills photographer is fiddling away with our promotional stills and Bastien Bourdeaux, who shot our Behind the Scenes footage is editing away, so there will be plenty of stories and pictures to oggle in the next month or so!

For now, whilst we regain our strength, I would like to thank the cast, and every single person who joined our crew for making this a truly enjoyable shoot. You can really see in the rushes that we put our hearts and soul into this film, thank you so much for coming with us on this insane journey!
