We are pleased to announce that the script for ‘STILL LIFE’ is coming along nicely – third draft complete now. As planned, we’re hitting our stride and on target to keep the ball rolling this summer and onward. A final draft is on the horizon. In five weeks time, once we’ve all agreed on the script being ready to shoot, we’ll be getting the pre-production ball rolling!
Also more great news: thanks to private investors we now have 75% of our budget secured and locked away ready for June next year! So we can confirm this is definitely all going ahead now folks!
Next up is rewrites (thanks again to our script editors for their feedback and continued support) and then to polish up the moodboard and pitch deck for the film, which are both almost complete. We already have a number of cast and crew informally on board and locations in mind (more on that later this year).
So all very exciting stuff and we cannot wait to bring this project to light. It’s our most unique, heartfelt and ambitious film yet without a doubt. Those who have read the script already have commented on what a ride it will be. It’s just a matter of time before we get to the pure joy of shooting the thing now!

And for those unfamiliar with the synopsis to our latest feature ‘STILL LIFE’, please see below:
Chuck Pons is cursed to live out his days like a piece of furniture on one spot, unageing, watching the episodic highs and lows of countless houseguests’ lives pass before him. Presented in two linear narratives, jumping back and forth between the day Chuck became frozen in time and the following decades, his best friend Les his sole caregiver, constantly questioning will he be released? And will their home survive when it comes under threat? An absurd, poignant, picaresque comedy.
