Night is Day - The End of an Era

(Simon Weir, Clare Sheppard, Steven McEwan and John Gaffney on the set of Night is Day: The Movie)

Today the final sound mix for the final ever episode of Night is Day, my Scottish superhero web series, was delivered. It was then exported and uploaded on to YouTube and added to the Night is Day web site.


I've talked a lot about Night is Day before so this isn't a long post. In 2004 I was training at the BBC in Glasgow and I saw an advert for a competition. They wanted you to create a trailer for a new movie. I decided to go for it, pitching the idea of a Scottish superhero who could touch you and get a vision of you in danger, or dying, therefore using his courage and strength to save the day.

9 years, 1 short film, 2 seasons, 13 episodes and a feature film later (and 4 or 5 one-off comic strips!) and Night is Day has come to an end. I never had any money to make it, we worked a lot of weekends, a lot of people came and left, a lot of people fell out a lot of people fell in.

Regardless, the goal was achieved. A web series with different characters fighting on the side of good and evil in Glasgow was finished.
