We are a production team of third year film students who have come together to make the best graduation short film we can manage. We have made the ambitious decision to make a science fiction film for our final graduation project. This will feature a spaceship and an astronaut in space.

Our project follows James, an astronaut stranded in space after suffering a collision with a solar storm. He must make desperate attempts for his distress signal to be heard before another storm threatens to destroy his ship.

'Beyond' is a story that speaks of isolation and the human need for connection in times of tragedy.

We would love all the help we could possibly get to make this project come to life. If all goes well considering Covid-19, you will have the opportunity to watch the final product in cinema.

With your help we will be able to fund the following for our film:

- Material for our film set

- Costume, make up and styling

- Resources for post-production ( we will be working with lots of VFX)

For any queries please do not hesitate to email us at [email protected]

Production Design

Update posted by Motselisi Mosebo at 06:16 pm

We've been hard at work with our production design, and know how much precision it will take to make it come together. A few days ago we met up with Ruben, a very skilled and resourceful carpenter who's familiar with our co-director Warwick. We had a deep discussion about the

The plan for costume and make up to have a spacesuit that our actor can move in comfortably. This will be our most challenging outfit as the aim is for it to be realist and comfortable. We also will be neededing a hospital gown and some casual outfits. Please don't

Test Shoot

Update posted by Motselisi Mosebo at 10:04 am

We had a test shoot for our graduation concept last week. This made us realise how much in depth planning we need to have done if we want a smooth shoot, especially if its going to involve such heavy visual effects. We believe with enough thorough planning and trouble shooting. . . . .

Through our film we explore the normalisation of trauma in the South African community,
