This is my first short film. It’s a 7 minute sci-fi comedic short about a woman in trouble.
In the next week or so, I will post a detailed critique of the film, what went wrong, what went right. I’ll also focus on the production process. Film making is an education, one I hope to share with anyone out there who chances upon these pages.

I’ll also be looking at the wider world of film making and the creative arts.
Now, who’s for a brew?
