The Protector just hit 20K views on YouTube ๐
Most grateful for everyone who's watched and shared the film.
Here's a BTS glimpse into how we did it, breaking down the final shot, the storyboard, and how it came together on set. We shot as close to the storyboard as possible to serve the narrative beats.
Considering we only had a single night to shoot the film, we had to be time-efficient and precise. Huge thanks to the cast and crew for helping execute this vision.

There were many exceptional films on display this year, so being nominated, let alone winning is an honour.
@roandex - we've come full circle, from meeting at this very festival a couple of years ago to now picking up these accolades together.
@jorolison - thank you for trusting me with the vision. Your artistry on screen is effortless.
@sooeyc , @misterudj & @fightingspiritfilmfestival team, what a journey it's been, celebrating 10 years with you last night at @hackneypicturehouse was fantastic, and very thankful for the way you continue to uplift and inspire.
To everyone involved in the film - we won this together. Collaboration is everything, as it truly takes a village to make movie magic.
Lastly, thank you to the audience and all who came out to support. Hearing your cheers and feeling your energy is always the best buzz - big love!
