The Contraption

I had a script idea about 2 years ago that i started but never really fleshed out properly about a time-travelling contraption. The story revolves mostly around the relationship between two friends who accidentally invent a time machine. Hmmm , vague I know!

Anyway , it looks like it will be my next short film project .... I've always liked time travel films , and although this one won't have a DeLorean or anything like that ... I hope it will be interesting.

MIssion Complete - The Film Is Done.

And so , the long journey ends. My short film Spring City Forum is now complete and ready to be viewed,praised,bashed and hopefully enjoyed.
My thanks go to the cast for their time , Dave Adams for his invaluable help and Claire for the BLT sandwiches half way through the shoot.
It has taken a while to complete for one reason or another but I am pleased with it.
And so on to the next thing ...... which will more than likely be a short about time-travel. One thing is for certain though , i shan't be making another 'complete green screen' film any time soon , it's just too painful!

If you like the film and think to yourself 'I'd like to have a go at being in something' then get in touch with me .... go on , you know you want to :)
