The wallpaper looks great – and seems such a shame that we’ve now got to paint over it with black paint! Just a week to go until rehearsals!

Shame we have to cover it with black paint in the film!

It’s taking shape and when it’s done it’ll be really creepy! Check out the pics – yesterday we finished lining the walls (which will be covered by wallpaper printed by RMC Digital Print) and built the chimney breast. The bed we purchased looks great too! Just three weeks to go until shooting starts!

It’s a very challenging part – but one that we know Alicia can take on. She stood out at audition and our decision to pick her was instant. We’re currently finalising who will play Anne so there will be more news soon. For more info on Alicia, check out our Cast Page.

Sarah's Bed

We’ve just purchased this little beauty – a genuine 1950′s cast iron bed. Very ‘institution’ style… and very creepy! Perfect for Darklight!

As part of the support we have from Film London, we go to weekly development sessions (many have been taking place at the lovely Shortwave Cinema in Bermondsey) and this week they laid on some actors to read through the script. It’s brought up a few things we need to change, but also made us realise how close to finished the script is! Casting will begin soon!

We’ve been out scouting everything from post-war prefabs to high-rise estates, but we’re pretty taken with this place – especially as the decor inside hasn’t been updated for a while. More pics coming soon.
