Echoes (2016)
An ageing recluse, once a rock star, gives an interview with a young music journalist.
The film is inspired by the mythology surrounding Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd fame, and drummer Ginger Baker. But I believe that 'Echoes' is something quite original. Here is the script: docdro.id/uVj4BI6
I'm the writer, and will be serving as director and editor. I have a cinematographer, who has worked on some big-name music videos for bands such as Years And Years; and a sound recordist/mixer, who has worked on films such as 'Rush' and 'Paddington' and 'Lady in the Van' and Paolo Sorrentino's fantastic 'Youth' (starring Michael Caine and Paul Dano).
So I need a willing, able-minded and bodied production designer (with props and if possible location managing experience, as I need help finding an amazing location that hopefully makes up for our lack of budget) to help with a 10-minute short film I'm making.

Unfortunately I will not be able to pay people at this stage, as there isn't the budget (although that could change before production), but so far people seem to like and love the script enough to do it as a "passion project".
The only thing I can promise is that if the film should win any cash prizes/awards, everyone involved will receive a cut in perpetuity.
I'm aiming to shoot before the start of April (possibly the week of the 21st, but before Easter). It will be a 2-day shoot, 3 tops.
It will most likely be London-based, but could also potentially be somewhere between West Sussex and London, so people with easy access to those areas are preferable.
