It’s been two years since I made Dead Susan- it ended up going to three festivals including a BAFTA & BIFA qualifying one and now it’s finally out for online release! It can be watched for free on Omeleto’s youtube channel. Thank you to all who helped make it a reality 

Featuring uncanny children, Miles Richardson being mysterious, and totally no parallels to Romana & Sartia

Sorry for the delay everyone, making the behind the scenes stuff took quite a while because I had to juggle it with uni assignments, but all the BTS content is now uploaded, so I will start sending rewards out tomorrow! 

The blooper reel took almost the most amount of time despite being the shortest, but it was very worth going through all the footage for the funny stuff

New trailer, this time using footage from the finished film

Post-production is officially finished, just waiting for delivery of the final files! Here's a quick look at our sound mixing session

[deadsusan]

Amazingly, not only did we reach the goal, we exceeded it by almost 20%, with 64 backers across 6 countries! 

I’m so excited to begin the edit. I’m already looking at portfolios, but in the New Year I’ll officially hire my editor and post-production will start in earnest. I’ll also be working myself on getting the Behind the Scenes content and all other extras ready, I plan to release those at the same time as the film itself. 

Because we reached the goal, we’re in Indiegogo’s InDemand program, so if the unfortunate timing of the campaign being so close to Christmas put you off, you’ll still be able to pledge to see the film up until it’s completed! (I do plan to raise the price of these slightly, so that people who got in there early have a benefit, but first I have to figure out how that part of Indiegogo works, so you have some time...) 

And a special thank you to @doctress, @thebraxiatelcollection, @irving-braxiatel, @thejabberwocki, @janeturenne for all the help in getting the word out <3 Have a cute cat photo:

We’ve reached our goal ahead of time, thank you to everyone who’s pledged!

The production itself was self-funded by myself and my co-producers, and was still only possible through favours from family, friends, and organisations such as YATI.

Having these funds for post-production means I’ll be able to finish the film at a much higher standard by hiring professionals rather than doing it all myself. Thanks to all your donations and contributions, I’ll be able to make the film the best possible version of itself!

We’ve already raised extra beyond our goal, those and any other funds raised will go towards:  

-hiring a specialist graphics artist to create a film poster or two

-some VFX to cover some small signs that a key location is a studio set rather than a real room- no one’s ever noticed at computer-screen size, but on a cinema screen it’d be more noticeable

-distribution related costs such as the creation of DCPs and the creation and postage of festival blu-rays/dvds

Elaine has a problem. Her new grief counsellor is the most interesting person in her school, but he’s very good at his job. She’s not the only one who knows what happened to her best friend anymore. 

Please check out the film here https://igg.me/at/deadsusan and consider helping us get the film finished. You can get a screening of the film for only £5, but other perks available include:

Hey all! If you’re interested in Gally at all, please head over and back this Very Good Thing. I don’t think our fandom has yet sufficiently freaked out about “one of our own believed in their own fannish powers so much that they made an actual film with the actual Miles Richardson playing a part that is nothing at all like Brax at all ever” but that actually happened and you can and should get in on the ground floor of it. (nvm that Scar is a fantastic writer and Miles has said more than once, publicly, how much he likes the script and honestly are you gonna tell him he’s wrong??)

With five days to go, here’s a second trailer for Dead Susan. Here you get a glimpse of our final cast member, Elodie, a talented young actress who makes her film debut as Susan! 

We’re only 15% away from reaching our goal, please check out the indiegogo campaign here

Six days to go and we are very close to the goal! Help us out and pre-order the film here for only £5!

A quick look behind the scenes- bet you wouldn’t have guessed our school was entirely made of trickery!
