The Idea

As part of our long-running short films initiative, we pitched the question to our team "Can you visualise the frustrations of the creative process?" So we organised some brainstorming sessions on the problems with brainstorming sessions, had committee meetings on the pains of design by committee, and bounced ideas around about how we bounce ideas around. Embracing a minimal design language to focus on the characterisation, we created a short film which is a montage of relatable scenarios for the creative professional.

Mamoon

Told entirely using projected animation onto real, polystyrene film sets, Mamoon is a fascinating and brilliantly conceived film. It follows the story of a mother and child, whose lives descend into darkness when the moon, and then their entire city, are engulfed by shadows. Fleeing the calamity, they discover a strange red light that may prove to be their salvation.
