            This is a two and a half minute short about a girl named Olivia who is accidently left behind by her family as they go on their annual holiday to Wales.  The film explores Olivia's naivety and imagination as she tries to find her own way there.

[Please watch in High Quality. ]

The film was planned,  written,  composed, shot and edited in under two weeks and was made on a mere £7 budget.

We made our own steadycam from scratch for £5; the remaining  £2 was spent on sweets and string (for the fishing rod.)

We are only young-ish (19 and 20, retrospectively) so we're not exactly rich and it proves that you do not always need to spend a lot of money to make a film.

Your comments have been so very nice and pretty much overwhelmingly good at times - we really appreciate the lovely words of encouragement and thank you sincerely.

One last thing to add,

If you want to help support us you can do so by going to our online shop, where anything you buy will subsequently go towards our next budget (hopefully a bit more than £7! ahaha):
