Advice and Support
We are indebted to a whole host of people who have contributed in kind or offered advice and support. Many thanks to:
EXETER SCRAP STORE – Such a brilliant resource! We used to visit the Scrap Store regularly and invariably found what we were looking for or something else we weren’t expecting but was equally useful. Cardboard sheets, fabrics, plastic tubing, silver paper, visually interesting plastic items, a UV light. and more! The Scrap Store has been essential to our film project. https://www.exeterscrapstore.co.uk/

GRIN – Paul Tucker for help and advice on funding

SELECT SIGNS – Lee Dart expertly covered the main door of the Silverhawk space craft. http://selectsignsexeter.co.uk/index.html
ACOUSTICLAD – Rick Cook arranged for the installation of a false ceiling at low cost. This has proved to be a valuable asset because we do not have to build it into our spacecraft each time we film.
EURO ACCESSORIES – Dan Newman who supplied us with a 24” tube which now acts as a navigation array enabling the Silverhawk to plot a course through the the stars of the galaxy.
ARCADIA – Karen Davies, Lucy Evans and Cyrus Bozorgmehr and the crew of Arcadia who hosted a visit for the actors so they could see the spectacular Arcadia Spider at Glastonbury.
