THE RECKONING - Behind the scenes (of a filmset) !!!

SANDSTONE PRODUCTIONS - THE NEW FOREST

The Sun rises over the misty fields of the New Forest

As we take in the beautiful views over rolling landscape we find it hard to contain our excitement of spending our morning on a film set at Breamore House.

Creativity fills the air as filming begins on a project 1 year in the making.

A short film called ‘The Reckoning ‘ Produced by www.pavillionfilms.com is based on a poem written in 1976.

Breamore house was selected for both the backdrop and filming location

As the mist clears lifts from the beautiful grounds of Breamore house Toma ( the main character) can been seen driving his dark blue Morris 8 up to the Manor house to visit his uncle

Actually, I will stop there …. (as I do not want to Spoil this epic story) although you will need to wait till November 2022 for it’s release date

From the stillness and quiet surroundings of the grounds of Breamore House the words the Director is heard :

“ Roll sound ….. Sound speed …..Roll camera….Camera speed” (audio of film slate being read), Marker (audio of slate being closed) then

“Action!”

The 15 strong team comprising of Director, Assistant Director, Actors and Actress, Costume, Makeup, Grips, Camera Man, Cinematographer, Photographer, Camera Assistant, Runner, Lighting engineer , Sound, are now making this Poem into a short Film production

Words like Creative - Visionary - Teamwork - Artistic do not go far enough to describe how these very talented cast and crew collective ideas allow this story to be printed to film.

A perfectly example of proving ‘Nothing is impossible’

Just seeing how much care, attention and dedication is put into every second of the Film is truly fantastic.

Just to be a small part of this (yes you may see me for a brief second from a far ! ) was a fantastic experience and wish everyone at www.pavillionfilms.com all the success in post production.

Looking forward to working with you all again in the Future ….. Mark D Elliott www.sandstoneproductions.co.uk
