Écorchée (2022)
Beautiful and haunting
Watched this stunning animated short at the 2023 Ravenheart International Film Festival in Oslo.
Despite being produced with yarn as the main material it's an at times somewhat gruesome and nightmareish - though truly captivating - experience. Designs, sets, sound design, and soundtrack all come together to deliver a moving, surreal and slightly morbid story that is simply a joy to behold.
If you have the chance to catch this short I implore you to do so.
I hope this will be available to own on physical format at some point in the future, as I would love to be able to rewatch this many times.
Lost in the Sky (2023)
A stellar work of dedication and passion
I was fortunate to catch this gem at the 2023 Ravenheart Film Festival in Oslo, and I was completely blown away.
Without going into detail of the story - which is simple, but fantasticly gripping and moving - the production is nothing short of mindblowing.
Utilising *only* practical effects, this young team of committed filmmakers dedicated years of their lives to produce a short film that will stay with me forever. Upon the ending not an eye was dry in the theatre, and the audience's collective jaws dropped in unison when "This film was made without the use of CGI" appeared at the end of the credits.
An absolute triumph.
