Shorts
In 2002 we started producing no-budget shorts to experiment and our skills in movie making . Two men, a camcorder and some talent. Since then we have made many shorts in various genres.
Our latest work uses industry professionals, techniques and our own expertise.
All of our shorts have been produced and funded in-house.
