Hello!

My name is Louis Sargeant. I am a Final Year Film Production Student and the Producer of the Short Film "My Friend, Lamp" - a family style short film entering production in early 2026.

Skye is a recently graduated art student who is struggling to find her creative muse. She is stuck working nights at a dull kiosk in the middle of nowhere. However, one night after work she comes across a mysterious 7ft hairy creature. The pair form an unexpected bond, going on a fantastic journey together, learning about the world and understanding how to enjoy the simpler things in life!

This is an incredibly ambitious film, which we are all really excited about. We are well into Pre-Production, and can't wait to dive into creating this project!

Your donations will go towards locations, costumes, props, travel, food, accommodation, and lots of other exciting things to help make this film possible!

Your support means so much to us, and to pass on the support, we have committed to donating a portion of all donations made to "My Friend, Lamp" to The Winchester Beacon (Charity Number 1080443). A local, Winchester Based Charity that provide accommodation, food and vital support services to help break the cycle of homelessness.

15% of all donations before 01/01/26 will be donated to The Winchester Beacon.

As a thank you for your support, any donation will result in your name being in the credits - You will be in the film!

Thank you so much for your support!!
