Horror-comedy animations exploring how zombie movies might be affected by Covid.

No Signal

From Shooting Lodge Productions comes another film from the ‘No’ compilation to follow the previous offerings of No Words, No Sleep and No Strings. As the nights begin to draw in, No Signal throws a light on the disadvantages of working at a remote environment."

Ring Around the Rosie

I found myself creating this little Nursery Rhyme, in to a Gothic Lyrical Experimental Animation at midnight, whilst on a break from my other Animated Project. It is just something that allowed me to develop my Experimental Animation making and to use previous Sketches and Archived Animation footage which I have never used before.

Inadvertent

Psychopathologist Professor West works by day at Arkham Sanatorium, but at night is conducting his own research into a cure for all forms of anxiety. He is determined to find the answer at any cost.

When you’re asleep

This little film, which juxtaposes animated sand and scratching on 16mm film, was made during studies at the Royal College of Art. The starting point of this film was the sentence "but it's always when you're asleep that I want to talk to you", read on a wall in the underground... a phrase actually taken from a Mano Solo song.

Locked

Locked is a film noir short written and directed by Niki Cornish and filmed by blind photographer, Ian Treherne. Starring Wendy Morgan, with a cast and crew of Niki's unique friends, this stylish, cinematic motion picture uses magnificent musical notes and stark lighting effects to lure the audience into a chilling anecdote of a fallen soldier's horrifying revenge.

A film about human interaction and attachment, The People explores the mark people leave on each other and the space they occupy. The watercolor’s fluidity and transparency are the tools used to communicate the emotional tone of the film.
