Tech Hunt: Behind The Scenes

As you know, I have been working on a film called Tech Hunt with the director/producer/crew that created Sophie's Fortune. I thought Sophie's Fortune would turn out fantastic, but I believe that Tech Hunt will be pure brilliance! The production sees Genesis Flux Productions, Divided Productions and Atkinson Action Horses collaborating their talents to produce a cinematic short film with no budget!

Tech Hunt is a film set in a post-apocalyptic era where only a small amount of technology remains. The hunt is on to find it!

You can check out the website and facebook page here. Feel free to spread the word! It will be incredible!

Today was the first day on set for Tech Hunt. It was so cold! We started off the day with a bit of snow but thankfully it perked up a bit once we started shooting. It was fantastic to see the stunt horses in action and it should make for an awesome sequence when all edited together. It was also interesting to see the fancy slo-mo camera. I'm not sure about make/model/technical details but I'm looking forward to seeing the shots they got with it! As always everyone on set was pleasant and it was nice to meet some new people.

Today has been one of those none-days, ie a day where nothing much happened of interest. However, I did eat junk food. So a good day for pigging out.

Well today has been awesome, but this evening terrible. This morning we met up with the boy's friend from work and went with her to see her horses. They're gorgeous and so well looked after! We had a short ride, but sadly within 1 minute of getting into the school the horse I was on, Seeky, decided to spook at something and completely caught me off guard so off I went! It wasn't a bad fall and I think poor Seeky was more freaked out that I'd come off than I was! My bum/bottom of my spine is majorly aching though, dreading what it will be like in the morning! No serious harm done though and we had a decent 'getting to know each other' ride. After we'd finished at the horses, we went for some nice pub food. It was a nice meal and was very filling! We also got caught in torrential rain and had to run back to the car. It was nice to meet someone the boy gets on with so well and she was a very nice girl, so hopefully we can go along again.

However, after we got home from visiting my parents we decided to clean the rats out as usual. We had them on the sofa whilst we washed their platforms and toys etc and out of nowhere Jacques decided to try and jump the 3 feet back into his cage. However, he missed, hit the side of the cage and fell a good 2 feet to the floor. He was shocked and just lay under the bookcase for ages, until we managed to get him back into his cage. We noticed him limping and decided to take him to the vet as it's not like Jacques to be so quiet and still. The vet said it looks like he's either damaged his ligaments or fractured his knee. He's had some painkillers and he's home for the night to see if the swelling goes down, but he has to go back in the morning for x-rays and then we'll see what damage has been done. Poor Jacques.
