OTHER INDUSTRY COMMENTS

"I am genuinely drawn to the material and to Kacy’s journey within the story, and would welcome the opportunity to bring this character to life."
Kelsey Scott, 2 x Emmy-nominated actress

"I really enjoyed the script…the scene with the sylph gave me goosebumps!”
Kevin Hickman, Editor

"Lovely story and really intensely linked to music, there’s so much that can be played around with the musical landscape of the work!"
Jasper Dommett, Multi-award-winning composer

 "I love The Rainbow Septology project…The idea that each film has a colour is fascinating, because we can bring that into the tone of the sound design as well, after all, sound and colour are both frequency waves. Phasing has a very interesting concept, the idea of a mysterious melody connected to overcoming grief gives us a lot of space to explore and play with sound."
Tatiana Sanches, Sound Designer/Mixer/Editor
