UK Film Council Swindon minimum wage

An art department assistant is required for the UK Film Council/B3 Media funded short drama - HOME. The film is shooting in Swindon, Wilts for 4 days over the period 22nd – 26th June 2009. Pay is offered at minimum wage for an eight hour day, for the shooting days only.

SYNOPSIS: Father and daughter KULWINDER and HARPREET are spending the weekend decorating the home that they share. When KULWINDER smashes a hole in his daughter’s bedroom wall, she fears a recurrence of his debilitating mental illness. As his mental state deteriorates and her worst fears are realized, the hole in the wall begins to mutate and grow, seeming to mirror her darkest dread. Finally HARPREET is driven toward an unthinkable solution to her desperate state.

The film will be shot on RED one and the filmmakers are aiming to create a striking and beautiful cross-genre film: a truly original piece of work with attention paid to every department. Writer/Director Gurch Singh has completed several high-end, high performance shorts, shot on a variety of formats. Producer Hank Starrs has a great record of award winning short drama, featuring such talent as Juliet Stevenson and Saeed Jaffrey. Please contact Hank Starrs.
