Huge congratulations to Dawn Shadforth, Michelle Eastwood, Kellie Smith and the team for winning the BIFA for Best British Short with The Big Day.
Working with director Dawn Shadforth is always a pleasure and it was great fun having her, Michelle, Kellie and other members of the team (and their families!) into the studio to work together on creating a vibrant but realistic (and awkwardly British) soundscape for the film. Everyone put their all into it and relished the opportunities to make fools of themselves in the booth, ADR stage or even out in the street, helping me to get the content we needed to build up an atmos for the film and to help guide the story.
Film Synopsis:
Jess is super excited to attend her step-sister’s wedding and truly become part of the family, but after only recently finding out about her existence, her stepfamily are less than delighted about her presence on the big day.
