20 NIGHTS

Dir. Cole Morris / UK / 2020 / 5m 30s

“An experimental film based on a series of dreams I had over 20 nights in October / November 2020. Many of the dreams involved the extremes of the elements and my anxious relationship with my surrounding environment, the city and the wider world. The film features oceans, rain, wind and snow storms, wild landscape, menacing city streets, and forests,
The film is a combination of Video / Animation and Print and I created the soundtrack from my own environmental recordings and using Logic Pro. The soundtrack is experimental, uneasy and uncomfortable, echoing my fears for the future and how we may end up living.”

NOTHING WAS HAPPENING (Lockdown Remix) – POLYHYMNS

Dir. Mat Fleming / UK / 2021 / 6mins

This video features the Star and Shadow Cinema in Newcastle. There is no audience and no band – only the visuals and music. This creates a lonely, detached and almost apocalyptic feel, reflecting the past year without live music. We feel this sense of isolation – and the loss that comes with it.
