Paul

Paul has been my neighbour for about 15 years. He's 83 years old and he's an actor. I recorded him talking about his life and I later added animation to it. In this portrait, past and present anecdotes of his life are mixed with drama, but they are told with a simple and satirical narrative.

Home Movie Short Film

'Home Movie' is the third short film from writer and director Neil Stacey. It follows thirteen year old Joey (played by Ryan Clarke) through a momentous day in his life. Shot on DVcam and Mini DV the camera becomes the centre of the film, offering Joey's point of view and a dialogue with his friend Billy (played by Conor Holland). A fast cut, stylised look mixes high contrast black, white and blue with heavily saturated colour images, all set to a pounding original electronic score written and performed by Duncan Tetlow. Home Movie, seeing is believing.
