Director: Martina Nagel

When Robert marries the beautiful Alice they are the 'perfect couple'. But the moment he learns his wife is pregnant, dark secrets from the past fly unbidden into the present and threaten to destroy their future.

Working closely with director Martina, we developed the psychological environments that reflect the descent from happy family life to a darker, more dangerous nightmare.

The images were hand-painted with watercolour and ink, acrylic, or pencil/chalk. We also developed initial concept art to define the romantic/impressionistic mood of the film.

Short Film: Suspension

In 2006, my solo animation project for the Glasgow School of Art 'Suspension' premiered at Darklight Film Festival in Ireland.

Blending my traditional hand painting methods with 3D, a painting unravels onscreen.

The curtain rises, clouds pass, a tower flies into the night. Swirling through a nighttime landscape, the film follows a shadowy female form on a windswept quest chasing a star.
