Once upon a time, a wonderful king ruled the lands. After a terrible accident, his overwhelming grief split the world in two. The world above went on as usual, but in the world below time stood still and darkness spread. In this darkness a creature called the Shroud (Gabrielle Chan) gained power, striking fear into hearts and turning creatures to stone. Matt Drummond: It was setting up the production pipeline to start with. As I said, this is a very new technology. So the way I'd been doing visual effects for the last 30 years—there was only a small part of that that was able to be taken into this new paradigm, which is the traditional animation. And so really, it was about adapting what I understood to be core visual effects needs into this new system and working out what they were. So there were some significant challenges to get this to where it got to. The ancient village of Warkworth is only 1.5 miles away and boasts a 12th Century toll bridge, one of only two remaining in England, Castle street is quintessentially beautiful and once described thus: “.….one of the most exciting sequences of views one can have in England" Warkworth village is steeped in history, full of ancient and wonderfully quirky stone buildings and houses, the village itself nestles right under Warkworth Castle, towering at the head of Castle Street, the castle appears to still give the impression it is guarding this unique and timeless village. Really well equiped kitchen, lots of cooking dishes etc brilliant (could maybe do with a bit more cutlery) , nicely furnished ." The accommodation was excellent and spotlessly clean. A lovely quiet location, but easily accessible for local facilities and the beautiful Northumberland coastline. Highly recommended.

Matt Drummond: I was the DOP as well, so I do a lot of different things. You could call me a bit of a control freak, I suppose. [Laughs] I really think that if you're going to be involved in film, and in particular, independent film, that you need a working knowledge across all departments. And that helps for us, as an independent production company, to keep budgets within reason and put a lot of wow factor on the screen. We get to do things in a very different way as well so that we really maximize the creativity and the output. The patio is well equipped with rattan furniture. A table with four chairs, and two double settees. Cushions are kept in an outside cupboard. Where did you film this? I'm assuming most of it was a green screen, but did you have to go on location at any point? Or was this all filmed in a studio?The Secret Kingdom Cottage has award winning sister property Manor House 981761, together they sleep fourteen.
