Welcome to the DRIFT….

Backyard Productions is now in pre production of its next feature length production THE DRIFT, space adventure in a starship graveyard, where a salvage crew becomes the salvage!…

The calendar below shows production events for The Drift. More detail is available here. If you use Google Calendar, you can add it to your other calendars by clicking the +Google Calendar button.

We are looking for volunteers, from 16 to 100 years old, to take part across the whole process. Production is taking place in Lincoln. We are looking for help with the following roles:

• Set building and painting
• Horror make up artists
• Sci Fi Costumes
• Props makers (weapons, sci fi gadgets)
• Camera / stedicam operators
• Sound artists and recorders
• Production designers
• 3D CGI artists (See the video below.)

This is a GREAT OPPORTUNITY for filmmakers, as our productions are bigger than most, with a crew of around 50-80 people. Although it is a voluntary project, we work as professionals, from scheduling to shooting; call sheets to clapperboards – it’s as real as it gets!

If you would like to get involved, email us at drift@bypuk.com and we will be in touch!

General information about getting involved is here.

Call out for CGI artists

We are looking for 3D CGI artists help us make some spaceships designed from LEGO Digital Designer. There’s lots of CGI work to do: modelling spaceships, making star-scapes (nebulae etc), holograms etc.

We need people to build models, or if you already have a ship you’ve modelled and would like to see it in a movie then get in touch.
