The first part of "The League of Gentlemen" short film titled "Highgate House of Horror". This is an example of short films being used by a production crew and writers who have worked on previous media items before; they also have production and acting experience. This short film is around thirty minutes in length, but still completes the frame needed by a short film. The short film focuses strongly upon the narrative and the location. It is based upon the strong emotion of fear and the destructive and criminal actions that humans can be persuaded into, all be it through the use of comedy.
The Black Hole - Phil and Olly
"The Black Hole" - Future Shorts - Phil and Olly - Virgin Media Shorts Grand prize winner 2008. This short film is based upon, the moral of greed. The main character is punished ultimately for the greed he possesses at the end of the film. The use of humour and the creative and imaginative plot, allow for the audience of the film to remain interested and to help put the message across. Creativity is an important aspect of this film. It conveys and important message in an unusual method; a black hole is not liable to be found in a photocopying machine. It keeps to the conventions shown by these productions, such as one main character and non varying locations.
"The Life and Death of a Pumpkin" - Winner of Best Short Film and Best Concept at Chicago Horror Film Festival 2006. It uses the pumpkins point of view in order to connote to the audience, the unusual perspective of how it feels about being stolen and the mutilated in order for it be made into a lantern for Halloween. The narrative and the theme's of this short film are important as it personifies the pumpkin and gives details about human emotions that could be complex and difficult to convey otherwise. Another important aspect is the creative imagery used and the artistic camera work throughout, in order to make it, unique, interesting and thought provoking.
