Hasta La Motion!

‘The Duck’ is a “proof of concept” film which I produced and directed in 1998, almost twenty years ago. Our work on ‘Space Jam’ was just finished and I came up with an idea for a feature film about a real duck that turns into a cartoon and decides to become a super hero, rivalling and competing with existing super heroes. We projected this film at all the major studios to pitch the idea and came very close to making it. But alas, it all collapsed in the end and the film was never made. A few weeks ago, I found a low contrast 35mm negative and a screening print buried in my cupboard. They were scanned at Cinelabs, UK, by their wonderful team of lab technicians. Looking it at it now, it is way too long and if I had the sound elements separate, I’d cut it down. I guess at the time it was too difficult to cut out footage since we put so much effort into the sets and the animation. Every frame felt precious, a mistake many young film makers make. But it is what it is. The animated woman is a blatant “homage” to Jessica Rabbit but I hope that twenty years on, I am forgiven. The team that worked with me on this was amazing, a great bunch of people, both the Live Action and the Animation crew. Now, for the first time, ‘The Duck’ is online, uncut. I will post the end credits separately since they are almost as long again. Enjoy!

How Bacteria Rule Over Your Body – The Microbiome

Extensive material eye candy for German material science behemoth COVESTRO. This material exploration resulted in a montage of developed designs, in our own color mood that reflects our way of seeing this world. Here is the actual work for the client, in COVESTRO brand colors: https://youtu.be/JFxpfljbWFs We were happy to convince an open minded client to embark with us on a journey of exploration, rather than knowing in the beginning what would be the results in the end. They just knew they could trust us and it would turn out exciting, and it proved worthwhile for everyone. Sound and music magic for both our material study and the final film by the magnificent Michael Fakesch.

Desperate to resurrect them, William recruits fellow scientist Ed Whittle (Thomas Middleditch) to help him secretly clone their bodies and create replicas. But he soon faces a “Sophie’s choice” when it turns out that they can only bring three of the four family members back to life.
