12noon -1.30pm: Screening of the Sci-Fi thriller, The Silent Messenger.

The Silent Messenger had a budget within reach of almost anyone. Using a small cast/crew and clever techniques in production/post-production, we were able to tell an epic story and deliver a film that has a production value far higher than the budget.

We want to show you how we did it so you can make your own shorts and feature films today.

1.30-2pm: Film Q & A.

We’ll have an informal chat answering specific questions on how we made the film. We’ll share everything we’ve learned to put you ahead on your own filmmaking journey.
