"The most challenging part of the shoot was getting a technocrane into the very remote farm we were filming on. The country roads were never engineered with that sort of machinery in mind, and the entire farm is built into a hillside. In the end that challenge became a gift. Using the crane and the natural height of the landscape gave the film its perspective and sense of scale. It completely shaped the way we approached the images, and it’s hard to imagine the film without it." - Director @freddie_leyden FARMERS!? - Short Film Directed by @freddie_leyden Written by Freddie Leyden & Clare Hoey Production Company @hauspictures Producer @harrikama Producer @jensklitnielsen Producer @sophie_ede Cinematography @mrdbird Choreographer @alexandra_green__ Casting Director @aineosullivancasting Original Music By @matthewsinstagram Production Designer @richardnikevans Hair and Makeup Designer @clarelambemakeup Costume Designer @taracostume Editor @freddie_leyden VFX Artist @slavkogavric_vfx Tech Specs: Alexa LF mini Lenses Arri DNA's TechnoCrane Aspect Ratio 2.00:1

Can't beat a few trips to Skeggie at the end of last year! Butlins v Boring Director @simon_neal Really enjoyed the process of finding the beauty in the mundane. Referencing a favourite Martin Parr, who very sadly passed away last year. We also added hints of Gregory Crewdson. Luckily the weather played ball for the moments we needed it too! 🙏 The Ronin 4D was the camera of choice for many reasons, first time I shot a full project with it! Amazing work by the production team @elliotsomers @gabyinproduction Art team! @whiteway @appropriatemaxroach Costume team with @mrgammoncostumedesigner HMU @loumccannmakeup And of course my team B cam and 2nd unit @brendanharvey_ Camera trainee @obi1self DIT @_spacebarman Lighting @lightobsessed @cinelight.london and team! And last but not least @feral_andy keeping me gripped through out! Big up to @tobytomkins for the grade! Lovely that he was free for a commercial with his old mate Dave! . . . . #cinematography #dop #martinparr #shoot #gergorycrewdson

Restless Director Jed Hart We shot this a couple of years ago in 'Sunny Dagenham'. The whole team worked to make it happen in 16 days of shooting, on a very small budget! So proud that we got it into over 100 cinemas across the UK and Ireland! Big up to @metisfilmsuk and the tireless work of @benedictturnbull1 🙏 The work continues to get it onto streaming platforms around the world! So if you didn't make it to the cinema there will be another chance!
