Jessica's parkrun heroes for Sky tv : Kirsty Morley film

tv - short film & documentary


1 of a series of 10 films I directed for Sky TV TX April 2019 onwards. The story behind the making of this film involved many challenges because Kirsty - who struggles with crippling anxiety - was nervous about the filming and yet determined to go through with it. The result led to arguably the best film in the series - she is so impressive and her story is so powerful. Great shooting from DoP Damon Beed and brilliantly edited by Keith Wright.
