Newlyn International Film Festival 2018
It’s official. Closedown is an award-winning short film!
Thank you again to everyone who helped us make this film and to all the organisers and staff at Newlyn International Film Festival for putting on a great festival programme and including us in it. We are super grateful to have been shortlisted and even more so to have won.
Our spirits are raised for whatever comes next.
Progress
We’ve made progress!
We know, it’s been a really, really long time. Far too long. Truth be told, we’ve let other things get in the way of our work on Closedown and Very Long Road more generally.
But hey, we’re working on it again, and we’re making headway. Hooray! The master edit is complete, the music (chosen by the lovely Liam) is on and levelled and that’s left is…
Hours of visual effects work and those finickety finishing touches. Peter is on it though, like the hero he is; so it’s in good hands.
It’s good to be back.
Editing
It’s been a while since the last update. Here at Very Long Road, we’ve been pretty busy finishing up the production side of ‘Closedown’. Now it’s editing time. Peter’s doing an excellent job so far, but it’s a long road (how apt). CH and her co-director Liam (from Baby Elvis and Chewbacca’s Beard) are providing guidance and creative input throughout this process.
Here’s a little tiny taste of what we’ve got going on (yes those black bars do represent CinemaScope).
Our first live-action project.
Production has begun!
We are very excited to announce that Very Long Road is embarking on its maiden voyage into live-action filmmaking.
Closedown is filming right now in Cornwall.
…Well, not right now; right now I’m typing.
We just finished day one–or should I say night one–with more to come over the next few days, so watch this space.
You can also find us on Facebook or Twitter for sneak peaks and regular updates.
We’ve taken inventory and we can’t wait to put all this to use.
Welcome to Very Long Road’s very own toolkit:
This will be the first you’ve heard from us about our new production. It’s not new for us, though, we started this project back in February (from a script written late last year.)
We are super excited about it, and just couldn’t keep it all in the dark much longer, so here is a little sneak-peek at the work we’ve been doing – a still of Peter working on the storyboard for scene five.
There’ll be more to come, I guarantee.
Hello World!
Welcome to Very Long Road.
This is where we will post updates on how our projects are coming along.
To get things started, here is our production logo.
You can also find us on social media here, or on the side bar.
And, if you would like to find out a little more about us, you can read our bios.
