The Last Stop
Released 2012
Pre-Production
We decided to make The Last Stop to enter an international film competition established by Ridley Scott and Michael Fasbeneder. We had only six weeks to write the script, organise shooting, film, edit the footage and arrange the score, if we were going to make the entry date in time.
We had a Fundraising event with nibbles, drinks and entertainment. To everyone who donated funds or attended the event we are very grateful for your support. Making a film is such a collaborative exercise, every contribution however seemingly small is important. And of course "contribution" includes your support and encouragement.

Filming Progress
We filmed over four days at Glenbrook Railway Station. We are very grateful for the expertise, involvement and props we received from the train enthusiast. Thank you to our dedicated crew, talented actors and our extras from Ryan Talent.

Post Production
Thank-you to our actors for their ADR and our post production team for whipping the film into shape. It was a tight schedule and made on a shoe string but we did it, great work team.
