'The Cell' Crew

I am very pleased that my project has been picked to be taken into production. Its nice to have your work validated since I have had this concept for a very long time and not told many people about it.
Obviously, I will be directing the piece which is what I wanted. When I pitched the Cell, I also suggested Mikey as a scriptwriter and Glenn as camera.
I am extremely happy to have got both of those choices as members of my crew. Mikey will also act as an editor for me, which I'm glad about, as I worked with Chloe last year who is a great editor but if Mikey is the one in the editing room, I will be much more inclined to sit in on a regular basis, like I did for our THINK ad.
Glenn is a welcomed addition as Camera/Lighting as we have never been on the same crew, but I do believe he is one of the best camera ops we have on the course, with a really good eye. I watched him work on Mikey's Go Outdoors advert and we were both always impressed with his skills with the camera. He also did his Minor on lighting which is really encouraging as the lighting within the cell is going to be a very important factor.
Jacob will round out our small crew as Sound, he expressed interest as I pitched my idea which was nice of him and again he would be my first choice. As many on the course see sound as an after thought apart from Jacob. He is one of the few that is passionate about the sound.
I am very pleased with our crew and hope they're as excited as I am to get started. I believe this is a really nice project for all of them, as they all have the opportunity to do something really interesting. Sound will have a lot of interesting foley work to create the atmosphere of a prison. Camera and lighting will be very experimental in such a small space, and being in the studio means we will have the opportunity to really experiment. Finally with editing, this will also be an interesting factor as the majority of the film takes place within one place. So the editing will be very important to achieve the effect of being stuck in this place for a long period of time.
