H.P. LOVECRAFT'S THE BOOK
writer/director: James Raynor
producer: Nicola Ford

A man tries to unlock the meaning of the Necronomicon, the dreaded tome which sent his old professor insane, with HILARIOUS CONSEQUNCES! Adapted from two stories by H.P. Lovecraft, "The Book" and "The Descendant."

Status: Written and the first act is storyboarded. I've handed it in to uni to produce this year, but I sincerely doubt they're gonna touch it, especially since a guy explodes in it and I'm not gonna give them the rights to it unless I can direct it and Nicola produces it.

In the highly likely event that they pass, I may shoot it over Christmas or failing that, Easter. It all depends on the progress of...

I had trouble coming up with a title for this Resident Evil-inspired short, then I heard about Snakes on a Plane, and realised that ti didn't need a proper title.

Status: Script is written and fully storyboarded. Click here for an animatic of the entire film (Mov, 9.2MB). You might want to ignore the quality of the acting, in that I played all the parts myself.

Presently looking into the viability of shooting on a real train.

Status: Outline half written. I've kind of lost interest in this due to a German film already being made based on the same incident, and mocking those German cannibals just won't be the same after that really quite genius episode of The IT Crowd. We'll see how it goes...
