Being The Brontës – films for the Brontë Parsonage Museum

I self-shot and edit produced this stand alone short film for the Brontë Parsonage Museum exploring the childhood artwork of Charlotte Brontë and her brother Branwell.

As an Assistant Producer on this 1×60′ documentary exploring the history of the famed British authors the Brontë sisters, I researched, planned and organised a variety of filming with our presenters; broadcaster Martha Kearney, journalist Lucy Mangan and author Helen Oyeyemi on location at the Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth, Yorkshire. Filming culminated in a reconstruction of Charlotte Brontë’s 1854 wedding in Haworth Parish Church, including organising props and costumes and casting professional actors and extras for the sequences. I directed second camera footage including drone sequences and stylised montages around the parsonage.
