The Summer We Shot Danielâs Room - a year ago we started with filming the enigmatic, rabbit-hole of a dream sequence at the
@warwickarts studio.
It was an important day 1 for the film, to achieve my vision for the sequence and find space to explore the more experimental aspects of our main character Emilyâs journey with
@shannoant as she sinks deeper into her past to confront her defining childhood memory.
This was early in the process, before many of the production crew had been assembled and before our generous Kickstarter contributors help to raise the ÂŁ3k. It was before I had the wonderful
@ashconnaughtondp onboard as our DoP (who shot the majority of the film and who is kind of a big deal!), hence why Iâm stomping about barefoot in 3 inches of water - yes, we really did lay a 10m pond liner and fill it with water!
And to all my friends in the WAC technical dept, who all lent their phenomenal skills to help me pull this off, I say, thank you. - Jack Richardson (

A huge thanks to the Arts Centre for agreeing to our using their space, and the support they have shown throughout. We have now begun our film festival run and are incredibly excited to show this film to as many people as possible.
Stay tuned for more updates on our festival journey and keep supporting Indy filmmakers! đĽ đ
