The Bolton Branch

We recently produced a mockumentary style training film in the style of 'The Office' for Bolton Council. The idea of the production was to challenge stereotypes of disability in the workplace.


The film was produced in association with a group of young people and professional actors from the Bolton Octagon Theatre. A large scale launch event and the premiere of the film will be taking place at the Vue Cinema adjacent to the Reebok Stadium in Horwich next week.


You can read more about the project on the Bolton Octagon's website here - http://www.octagonbolton.co.uk/page/3349/The-Bolton-Branch


Here's a short trailer for the film and cover art for the DVD -

Music Video Challenge

We recently squeezed some time out of our busy schedule to take part in an online music video competition run through the video sharing website vimeo. The idea of the competition was to create a music video for one of three tracks from Moby's recent album 'Destroyed' and themed around 'Hello Future'.

We chose the track 'The Day' and made the whole video in one weekend, devising the idea on the Friday, shooting it on Saturday and Sunday and then editing it overnight in time to be submitted for the competition deadline on Monday!

Our idea for the video was centred around disillusionment with modern life/technology.
We shot the video using a Canon 7D DSLR camera and a variety of prime lenses as well as the Sony EX-3 for some of the slo-mo shots.

The video also stars a close friend of ours - Graham Baldwin a.k.a the silver fox.

Enjoy!

Towneley Time Travellers - Trailer














Here's the teaser trailer for the 'Towneley Time Travellers Guide', a 6 part educational film we shot in August with the Burnley Arts Development team and a group of budding young actors from around Burnley. All 6 episodes of the film can be seen on special installation screens around Towneley Hall. It's designed as an interactive guide to teach visitors some of the historical facts about the great hall, but also to be fun at the same time!
