"Downsized" by Ed Willey 📶 Connect with the Filmmakers: https://badgerfox.film/ https://www.instagram.com/badgerfox.film https://www.instagram.com/edwilley_ 🎥 More About "Downsized": After his employment is terminated, a software engineer attempts to recover the digital consciousness of his late wife. Whilst reengineering the process that originally “saved” her, he’s interrupted and must fight to save the woman he loves, at any cost. 🎬 Director’s Statement: I set out to make something that really challenged my writing and directing, whilst focusing on a genre I love. Even as a six-page short, I strived to give a sense of the world the characters inhabit and how each of them deals with it through their own lens. You could argue that at its core the film is a love story, and intentional or not, my work always has a sense of heart, even when all the characters may be several shades of grey! 🎞️ Credits: Writer/Director - Ed Willey 1st AD - Ian Ifield DoP/Colourist - Will Taylor Poole 1st AC (Office) - Leon Purser 1st AC (Basement) - Lucas Patternott 2nd AC - Nuri Moseinco Gaffer - George Castle Spark - Georgie Fenny Production design - James Early Sound recordist/Sound design - Gerardo Pastor-Ruiz Fight director - Dan Burman Hair and makeup - Sophia Attias Editor - Sney Noorani Composer - Alexandros Miaris Production manager - Rachel Foster Production assistants - Esan Paydar & Robin Sayles Cast - Liam Fleming Neil Linpow Rebecca Todd Connect with DUST: Website 🌐: http://www.watchdust.com Follow Us on Facebook 👍: https://www.facebook.com/watchdust/ Follow Us on Instagram 📷: https://www.instagram.com/watchdust/ Follow us on TikTok 📱: https://www.tiktok.com/@watch_dust #DUST #scifi #shortfilm Submit Your Short Film: https://filmfreeway.com/alterdustsubmissions NOTE: Only completed shorts will be considered.
