I did film studies for a while at college so would be more than happy to have a pop at directing/ filming, thats if nobody minds or has more experience.
Re: costume and props
Right people, I have finished writing a first draft of a storyline for the film, once jonathan sees it he will make his mind up wether it is good or not and then I will adapt it further, then it will be made into a script or something like that. Unfortunately I cannot post the story as I wrote it on paper while my brother has been on the computer everyday for that past week or so. I will try and keep you updated.
