Short Film Shoot: Desecration

Alan McCracken came to the studio door in February with a feature film length script for the C Project submission that he co write with his friend David Withers. I read it and gave him the good news and the bad news. I congratulated him on writing the script in the first place but I had to decline the script as it was too ambitious for the C Project. However, there were elements of the story which I really liked and I thought it was a creative modern take on the Irish banshee story. I gave Alan a choice- he could go away and try and find funding for a feature length version from somewhere else or he could collaborate with me through the C Project and hack the script down into a high quality short film. He accepted the latter and we started several script development sessions to cut it down.
