Occasionally the offset framing employed in the film was inappropriate and the director and I discovered by chance that these centre-framed shots worked best in the story when the boy was doing his magic. This allowed us to separate those moments from the rest of the drama and it allowed the audience to remain unsure whether he actually had a genuine "magic" ability or whether it was simply a child's fantasy?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #awardwinning #screengrab #offsetframing #Arri #AlexaXT #Alexa #Cooke #Xtal #Express #anamorphic #vintage #lenses #shortfilm #creativeenglandishort #creativeengland #drama #family #raw #lowbudget #filmmaking #cinematography #cinematographer #directorofphotography #dop #naturallighting #ACS #panavision #panavisionlenses #indiefilm #locationfilming ⠀

Yet again, the offset framing has allowed me to convey the separation the young boy felt. This frame perfectly demonstrated a time in a child's life where the struggle with their relationship to societal structures and boundaries is very real. The architectural structure of the brickwork and the lines of the buildings gave a 'looming' quality that could only be conveyed through the cinematography.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #screengrab #offsetframing #Arri #AlexaXT #Alexa #Cooke #Xtal #Express #anamorphic #vintage #lenses #shortfilm #creativeenglandishort #creativeengland #drama #family #raw #lowbudget #filmmaking #cinematography #cinematographer #directorofphotography #dop #naturallighting #ACS #awardwinning #screengrab #panavision #panavisionlenses #indiefilm

Creative agency Peter & Paul commissioned me to do a few illustrations for a paper they were designing for Creative England. This was my favourite of the ones I did. You can see all the others on my site.

Last Friday got our submission in for Creative England's 'Funny Girls'. I co-wrote wrote with Rosy, who is our killer in Heartstrings and who generally makes me cry tears of laughter when she's not being a silent assassin. The more I make things the more I find the use in 'finding your edges'... If it were a painting, where would it stop? I interpret this on a reference level to identify where the playing field is and how far it stretches. We've both got a love of physical comedy and have worked together enough to feel confident to deliver it. Below are our references. Sarah Lund meets Mary Poppins in this Time Travel comedy. Think Sleeper without the sex jokes and with Marx Brothers wordplay. And maybe horseplay too. Sound ridiculous? That's us. It's a two hander and our heroine's partner in jokes is a black gay dude. Not quite enough non-cringeworthy references for his character floating about just yet.
