While working my way up the ladder of ‘stills photographer’ on movies, I did a lot of short films. Several of the directors I worked with on those shorts have become friends who I’ll go out of my way to work with again, including Tristan Versluis<\/a>, Ryan Haysom<\/a> and Jacob Proctor<\/a>. The first short I did for Jacob was Mother Time<\/em> (on Vimeo here<\/a>) a couple of years ago, and then Collectables<\/em> (photo gallery on my blog here<\/a>) a year or so later. <\/p>\n

He recently wrote and directed a new short, A Sunny Morning<\/em>, shooting over the course of a weekend in a house in Greenwich (the Art Director, Melanie Light<\/a>, emptied a lounge and converted it into a bedroom). Like Collectables<\/em> it features just two characters, played by Sophia Myles<\/a> and Charlie Cox<\/a>, and was shot by Director of Photography Trevor Speed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When the film has completed editing, Jacob intends for it to be a calling card for his directorial skills and has been building an online following around the film and it’s cast using Twitter (follow them here<\/a>) and a blog-based website (over here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

My involvement started with some concept photography for the website, followed by production stills on set. The film is about a woman called Grace who is on the brink of a life-changing decision following an argument with her husband and jealousy of her best friend’s career success. To create the mood, Jacob wanted to illustrate the website with specially-shot photographs of Grace’s ashtray, books, and a ring lit by soft, natural light and so one Saturday morning around a month before the actual shoot we set up in his own bedroom and shot the arrangement in as many ways as we could think of to give the website designer something to play with.<\/p>\n

I wanted to post a few of my own favourites from that day, which you can see below. The film’s Twitter account will be releasing more stills from the set as they accumulate more followers and Facebook friends, so take a moment to add your support and they’ll get released that bit quicker \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
