BEHIND THE SCENES PHOTOS OF THE DEAR DAD PRODUCTION!

The crew now go into post production as they have officially wrapped their shoot! More will come to update on the film as well as the aim to have it promoted to channels and streaming platforms in future.

For now, here is some BTS photos regarding the shoot. The crew shot on the Arri Alexa Mini LF camera and had various locations as well as dealing with amazingly talented child actors within difficult scenes.

Dear dad is a story focussing on divorce and the impact it can have on a mans mental health. It is a true story written by our co owner Megan O’Loughlin.

*TEST SHOOTS UNDERAWAY*

The Dear Dad Crew are officially leaning into production with conducting test shoots and more! It is super fun to start seeing the creation of the world we want to show our audience. Here is a cheeky behind the scene photo of their recent test shoot in a studio for a certain argument scene!

From the Writer:

One of the things you can forget about within the filmmaking process, is how much effort and work actually is put in before you are even begin shooting for the real thing. Every ounce of detail needs to be accounted for and sometimes you can miss something you never thought needed to be addressed. But having a hard working team, one with passion and enthusiasm, can help make sure you don’t miss those mistakes.

This test shoot was not only fun and substantial, it was a way to learn even when you feel you know alot, there’s never not something to learn from when it comes to filming. And there is always someone next to you who has a good idea that can make your film spark just that little bit more.

We had a very good time and spent hours with the ARRI ALEXA classic getting the movement correct for a scene we want to impact people significantly. However it will be alot easier when using the ARRI MINI for the actual shoot!

Hope to see you guys follow along this journey with us as well as join us when the film is put together!

Hope everyone has an amazing day!

*2025 UPDATE*

Hello everyone!

Firstly, we’d like to thank you all for your patience in awaiting an announcement from us! We can’t express our appreciation enough to those who have stuck by us, and kept us in the back of their minds.

We’d like to share a little bit about what we’ll be doing over the course of 2025, as well as tell you a bit about the collaborations we’ve got in store for this year.

Colour Bird Studios is an entity that still seeks to create an innovative and original pathway leading to the goal of becoming a fully established independent studio, that is not only progressive but also equal to each individual that works with us.

However, this is a rather large task, and to achieve this, careful thought has gone into creating a method that uses modern techniques, that keeps ethical standards at the root of each decision.

We’d like to share a few things with you that we’ve already started putting into production, as well as some projects that are soon to start production.

This is Colour Bird Studios 2025 plan.

-DEAR DAD-

Dear Dad is a short film written by Megan O’Loughlin, that will be going into production over the first half of 2025.

This is not a Colour Bird Studios production, but rather a film that we will be assisting with when it comes to promotion. We will be sharing the amazing work that this team has put into this project, as well as sharing certain aspects of casting opportunities and crowd funding.

We will also be using this opportunity as a trial run for the sector of Colour Bird Studios that focuses on promoting Indie filmmakers that are external to our Studio. Having an opportunity like this gives us a really good test run of what we can offer when it comes to promotion/marketing and we are so honoured to have the chance to do this.

The script is extremely moving, and focuses heavily on men’s mental health, and we will be sharing more about this project very soon!

-COLOUR BIRD MEDIA-

Colour Bird Media is a brand new sector of Colour Bird that focuses primarily on creating social media content both for ourselves and for external companies.

Colour Bird Media (CBM) is something we will be putting secondary focus on for now as we organise projects that already have been announced, or are yet to be announced. However, we will be launching our first project in the social media realm very soon.

We have already started working on a project with a company that is a leading retailer in their specific industry, and we will be announcing more about this shortly.

-CBC25-

Colour Bird Conference 25 is an online event that will be up in March, and we will be going over details about every project that Colour Bird Studios will be working on over the next few years. This includes details about the Cypher Series, as well as a few other projects we have lined up.

For me personally, I’m very excited to share what we’ve been working extremely hard on, and we hope that our time and effort that has gone into working on these projects, will not only ease a lot of your minds about us, but also allow us to prove ourselves as a real addition to the industry.

That’s all for now, but stay tuned for more updates!

Have a great day!

Hello

We hope you’re all having a great day!

So we’ve been seeing a lot of comments about our response times to people trying to contact us, and we just wanted to address this quickly.

So we’ve been spending a lot of time replying to as many people as we can, both on our Facebook Messenger and our email, and we’re happy to say we have caught up with the majority of messages. However, we have seen a few people compare us to production companies with large teams that generally have the time and resources to respond more regularly than us.

We know that a lot of you understand this because of all the lovely messages and emails we’ve been receiving recently. But for those who have criticised us for not caring or just generally stating that we’re not serious, we will address this one final time.

Firstly, we are not a large company; we are a small independent production company, which is something we have repeatedly stated since our first film announcement.

Secondly, we are going to make mistakes, but we are trying our best. There’s a lot that goes into filmmaking, and we're also trying to build a production company that is well structured and that meets our ambition. It takes time, and there’s a lot to learn.

And lastly, we do not have a big team that we can dedicate to regularly replying to everyone; it is only 4 of us, and we are all very busy. We have been replying as much as we can; however, we still have to work on the film and also handle our personal lives. So please be patient and bear with us.

If you haven’t been responded to, this may be because you requested an audition through the improper method, by contacting our page rather than our email, which is why you wouldn’t have received a response (auditions have now been closed, so please don’t send another request to the email). For any future questions you may have, please email us at [email protected] and we will get back to you there. Please do not try to contact us through our Facebook Messenger, as we will not be checking this as often.

We’re very sorry for the long message, but we’re hoping that now we have put this behind us, we can go back to having fun with filmmaking and trying to create not only one of the best independent action drama films of the past decade but also an innovative production company like no other.

I hope you all have a great rest of your day, and we appreciate all the love and support we have been receiving lately! 🩵🩷

*CYPHER: AGENT DOWN UPDATE*

Hello Everyone!

So we’ve just made this quick video to give you all an update on what’s been going on with our first feature film “Cypher: Agent Down”.

This film has quite literally changed my life, and we haven’t even started production yet! I cannot express how much I appreciate every single one of you that follows our page, and I cannot wait to to show you all the work we have put in to establishing ourselves!

I understand that having to delay Agent Down may seem like a bad thing, but in the long run we know that this gives us the greatest chance of not only creating a better film, but also being able to continue the Cypher Series in the way that I have personally always dreamed of!

We’re going to be a lot more active across all of our socials, and there’s some big things coming soon, which we’re so excited to tell you all about.

I’ll speak to you all soon, and again thank you all so much for even being there in the first place! 🩵

Kindest Regards
Alastaire Bird
