A BFI NETWORK short film. Mackling is a social drama following the strange and off-kilter relationship between two men as they prepare for a local funeral.
A contemporary Cornish drama. We are looking to raise additional funds for a short film set in a Cornish coastal town.
Set in a world of reclamation yards, house clearances and rural deprivation, Mackling is a social drama following the strange and off-kilter relationship between two men, Bud and Sully, as they prepare for a local funeral.
Mackling captures a moment in time, observing two social outcasts and a world set apart from normal life. Bud and Sully exist in a very real part of Cornwall. A gritty, hard and lonely environment, existing on the fringes of society and attracting characters who have nowhere else to go. The film?s subtle and observational approach explores unconventional communities, changing landscapes, and the magical and bizarre world hidden conspicuously beneath Cornwall's surface.
We are looking for a grader // colourist to finish off our BFI short drama Mackling.
This is a remote role. Unfortunately we can't offer payment but you will get a credit and be invited to our cast and crew screening, plus get to be involved with a great team and a BFI film!
Bit about the film:
- It's about 12 minutes in length
- It was edited on Premiere
- I am Bristol based and the director (Jonny Dry) is Cornwall based and we can be on hand whenever
- It was shot on a Sony FX9 with rehoused Bausch & Lomb Super Baltars lenses
- We had a grader lined up but they've pulled out last minute!
