The area is changing. People are disappearing. What has that got to do with coffee?

Written and directed by actor and playwright Nathaniel Martello White, CLA’AM is a short film about a man who notices that his area is changing and suspects that darkness may be afoot. As Hog, a long time resident of a certain south London district known as Cla’am searches for his friend JJ, he starts to see patterns and signs pointing to a mysterious plot. But no one will listen to him. As the mystery deepens CLA’AM is the story of Hog’s mission to expose the conspiracy, and save his friend. Is it all in his head? Or might the disappearance of the locals really be somehow connected to all the new coffee shops.

Sometimes the commissions that are the most fun are ones where you’re given nothing but a script, with the freedom to construct a visual narrative around it. This short film for the School of Life charts the relationships of two couples engaged in the cycle of nagging.  A shirking husband and his long-suffering wife, and a daughter who has become unreceptive to her mother’s tyrannical lessons.

'Nagging is one of the most understandable but counterproductive patterns of behaviour – that kicks in when we have failed to teach someone what we want and are feeling tired and bruised emotionally. But if we really want others to change, there is no alternative but to gather our strengths and try to convey information in a way that can be understood by someone else.'

Designed, Directed, Animated & Produced by: Steve Kirby
Written & Narrated by: Alain de Botton
Sound Design by: Trevor Richardson / Sonosanctus
Additional Animation by: Andrew Embury
Client: The School of Life

A group of atypical youngsters cut off from the common man’s reality roam their city and surroundings on horseback. They embody the ultimate expression of freedom: young and invincible at the reins of their mounts. Our focus centers around a young man who stands out from the group. We sense in him a very strong yearning to push beyond his world’s boundaries. We follow him one day, as he ventures into uncharted territory and decides to leave indefinitely.

In the small town of Paulsboro, New Jersey the religion is pro-wrestling and it's temple is The Monster Factory. Over the past 30 years, pilgrims of all creeds, colors, shapes and sizes have made their way to this modest, repurposed high school gym, eager to escape the realities of their normal lives to pursue a place within a world of entertainment largely dismissed as fake. Despite what you may believe, one thing is certain - when it comes to the no bullshit, get-it-done training style of owner / head coach Danny 'Cage', you can't fake the blood, sweat, tears, and focus it takes to make dreams come true.

"Monster Factory" is this week's Staff Pick Premiere! Read more about it here: http://ift.tt/2lh7gvm
