A fun little collaborative project set up by Berlin based animator Christen Bach, who I had the pleasure of connecting with through the Berlin Pictoplasma Festival. Christen was kind enough to invite myself & co-director Ewen Stenhouse to take part.

"Each participant gets 4 weeks to produce between 5 and xx seconds of film. When the time is up, the clip gets uploaded to the blog and the next one in line takes over. It is up to each individual creator to pick the style and media they want to work in - and to decide how they think the story should evolve."
Well here's mine finally... Had to cut short the precipice I was planning to end on due to time but think I'll add that in later on my blog as some what of an alternate ending. Actually had a lot of fun & learned loads working on this so it's been a nice little breakaway from commercial work. Hope you guys like it?
