Random Acts

2014

In 2014 we produced ten animations for Channel 4’s Random Acts that considered the world’s secret monsters. 

The slate considers the pseudo-science of cryptozoology – the search for creatures whose existence remains unproven, including thunderbirds, the Loch Ness Monster, phantom cats, Bigfoot, colobockle, and the Chupacabra.

In 2012 we produced 5 short films in association with Lupus Films for Channel 4.

We invited artists to respond to the notion of 2012 as the year that many cataclysmic or transformative events had been prophesied to come to pass.
