Full Project Team and Needs

Logline

A woman exchanges phone calls with her friends and family while moving house, ultimately revealing a deeper and unexpected reality.

Synopsis

Brittany (early-30s) is moving house. Throughout the day, Brittany exchanges phone calls with friends and family discussing plans, relationships, memories, inside jokes, and dreams. Each conversation reflects the warmth and love that surround her.

During these conversations, we learn that Brittany is in the early stages of serious illness. She faces her condition with a blend of humour, positivity, and acceptance. Her older sister playfully remarks that Brittany has ten good years left, a joke that reflects their open, transparent approach to her diagnosis. The gravity of Brittany's situation remains understated, focusing on her vibrant interactions and strong connections with loved ones.

"Moving On" is an exploration of love, friendship, community, and the strength found in vulnerability. It is a near-realtime glimpse into a courageous woman's journey through the twilight of her independence.

The Role

We’re looking for a post producer to collaborate with our director on finalising Moving On, a short film shot in 2024. The film combines improvised realism with a gradual tonal shift from light drama to quiet tension, requiring thoughtful coordination across picture, sound, and music. Experience in post workflows, project management, and supporting emotionally grounded, character-driven stories is a strong advantage.
