Over the past six months I have been working on a documentary film which will be submitted as my dissertation by practice. The film is entitled Don Brett: A Life in Colour. It looks at my friend Don, who is an artist. He paints, sketches, carves and also plays music.
My friends and I are in our final year of a Film & Media studies degree. Four of us have been working together over the last couple of years and have formed a small production team. We call ourselves Perygl Productions (Perygl meaning danger in Welsh).
In the past few weeks we have also formed a ‘sister’ company for Perygl called ‘Cougar Films‘. This provides us with a practice ground for trying out different shots and SFX. It’s us basically having fun and indulging our love of grindhouse and exploitation cinema.
We like to do everything in-house and have challenged ourselves to turn out a slew of trailers for films that will never exist. The entire production from start to finish has to be completed in 24 hours and published on-line when the time is up.
Here is our first effort, filmed yesterday October 8th, 2012.
Stay tuned for the forthcoming ‘Snake Thrower’!
