And I don't need to write the post, because Lee at D&C Film has managed to curate photos and edit the text in time for us to push out the interview as part of the launch. What a nice guy!

So, in the interest of "fediverse-first" I've published our new film, Booted something like five hours earlier to our federated video host than anyone on commercial media is going to see it. We also got asked a few questions my Devon and Cornwall Film, but our answers are going to have to wait for me to have time to write a longer post.

Anyway, here's the film.

Had a bit of fun this morning making a wide poster for our short film. It's released on Sunday afternoon on @swordandfiddle@spectra.video if anyone's interested.

Booted takes the form of a parent's message to their child, narrated while remembering the course of their life via the medium of their footwear. Produced by Tiverton-based Sword and Fiddle Productions, it was filmed in 2024 across various locations in South West England, and rooted further in the region with contributions from BOVTS graduate actor Olivia Edwards; Exeter singer-songwriters Sound of the Sirens; and Devon-based voice-over artist and actor Simon Alison
