JOURNEY
After finishing uni, me and co-founder Stevie knew we wanted to make films - we just didn’t know how. We hadn’t gone to film school, didn’t know the terminology, but decided to start anyway.
That winter, we spent long nights in my room with a fake YouTube fireplace glowing on the screen and rain outside, writing our first script. Once it was done, we posted jobs on Mandy, WhatsApp and through friends, slowly building a crew. We made ourselves producers so we could watch and learn from everyone on set.
Between shifts as waiters, baristas, assistants and even at a Krispy Kreme factory, we scraped together £5,000 to make it happen. We told the crew to call us out when we got things wrong - and that openness became our biggest strength.
The shoot was chaotic, sweltering, and completely transformative. That project became our crash course in filmmaking - and the start of everything that’s brought us to Day Job today.
