A contemporary short set on the road with a modern pop star and her inner circle. The film follows life on tour in Manchester as cameras roll during a key test day and subsequent dates to be confirmed.
We meet the star, her pragmatic manager and a long suffering tour technician, as backstage drama collides with performance pressure and the realities of life in the spotlight
Apply if you want a character led music world drama with expressive scenes backstage and on tour, collaborative student crew energy and clear roles that allow you to showcase charisma, nuance and on set professionalism

No experience required, but reliability and a positive attitude toward filming are essential
Female 18 to 34
Tahliah. The star of the show on her second tour. Controversial, bossy and assertive. She wants everything done right even if it causes stress for everyone involved including herself. She is too into her own image for her own good. Singing and dancing ability may be required
Male or female 24 to 40
Alex. Tahliah’s manager. Down to business while also a close friend to both Tahliah and the rest of the crew. Alex gets bored of backstage drama very quickly especially when it comes to Tahliah’s backstage drama
Male 30 to 60
Jimmy. The tour technician. Backstage he is always somewhere arguing. Think Carmy from The Bear
