Work in Progress: A New Feature Film in Production

We are thrilled to announce that we have started production for a feature film that we’ve been working on for a while now! We were gearing to start in late March, but everything was put on hold when the first lockdown (which was also global) was announced midway through the month. We are so happy to be on set again, and are also ensuring we stick to local and international safety guidelines on workplace COVID-19 prevention for the film sector. These include: COVID-19 testing for all crew, and for cast members who will be on set for longer periods; temperature and health checks at the beginning of every day; frequent, regular hand washing and sanitising; frequent, regular sanitising of surfaces and equipment; essential personnel only; strict social distancing; face masks always, and more.

Our first week was an incredible blessing, with great vibes and amazing weather. We’re beyond excited, also, that our very own Mars and Akati are making their directorial debuts on this project! Being on set together after months of not seeing each other is a real gift. We remain grateful to be able to shoot at this time, and even more thankful for all the additional crew and the entire cast who’ve all agreed to join us for this new adventure.  

We are looking forward to the rest of the shoot days, and we’ll be telling you all more about this New Work in the coming days!
