The Glowing Hours is a 2012 English liveaction short film written, produced and directed by Paul Young and starring Maya Beresford, about a young girl who looks to the past to remember a promise she once made.
Principal photography took place in December 2010 and January 2011, on location in Hertfordshire, UK. The interior scenes and exterior of Stowfield were filmed at Elm Court Community Centre in Potters Bar, with the upstairs bedrooms being shot at St Christopher School in Letchworth and additional exteriors in Welwyn Garden City. The shoot had to be completely rescheduled on the second day of filming when unexpected heavy snow fell throughout the December leg of the shoot, having to reshoot several scenes and move all of the large exterior scenes to avoid further continuity problems. A second unit day took place in April, where pickup shots with artificial snow were also needed.The film was shot on the Red One digital camera system, with cinematography executed by BAFTA BritToWatch Sam Care, editing by NFTS graduate Una Gunjak and sound design by twotime BAFTA nominee Andre Jacquemin. The original soundtrack was composed by Robert Charles Mann, with additional music by Brend Trend featuring an entirely orchestral score with use of choir and glass harmonica to underlay the magical and emotional tone of the film. Firsttime director Paul Young stayed with Mann for nearly a month in ChaumontsurLoire, France, where the soundtrack was completed. The film was mixed at Redwood Studios and Twickenham Film Studios in September 2011. A preview screening was held on FridayOctober in 2011 at The Mayfair Hotel in London. ........
