I had an amazing time bringing this short film to life after a crazy short amount of time in prep. My first rom com, with the stunning Matthew Hegarty and Ree Coler-Williams, my first time shooting with Canon CN-E primes (beautiful) and my first time trying out the Fiilex Q6 lights (also beautiful and worked seamlessly alongside my LitePanels).

Having spent a lot of jobs recently shooting on my own it was so lovely to have a crew again, so I must give a shout out to 1st AC Pete Nance (and his Mary Poppins van), 2nd AC Bella Peterson, Camera Trainee Nathan Grove and Gaffer Thomas Maher. Also special love to Director Beth Rowland for bringing me on!

I’ve also got to thank both Canon & @sunbeltrentalsukifilmtv for lending us the kit and for the location, Bean There Coffee Shop, not only for catering but for making us fresh coffees throughout the night that kept us going!
