Title: Catalyst Section
Concept and Storyboards by Simon Robson
Direction, Illustration & Animation by Bran Dougherty-Johnson, Grow Design Work
Music and Sound Design by Echolab / Gavin Little
Voice Over by Colin Tierney
A 40-second segment for Coalition Of The Willing, which is “a politico-environmental film made by a network of over 20 collaborating artists and film-makers from around the world.” Simon Robson, the director and producer of Coaltion – and also the artist behind the brilliant polemic What Barry Says from 2003 – has said that my project, PSST! was one of the models for this film, and I was glad to lend a hand in my part. The film is being released piece-by-piece, so it’s still all coming together, but looks really great!

Client: PSST!3
Title: Live
Live is Part 3 of a PSST! film that I worked on in conjunction with Rex Crowle. Someone dropped out, so I ended up doing both Part 1 and Part 3. I think it worked out, though. I liked answering Rex’s section with my ending.
See the full film atPSST!.
