Fire Flower

Fire Flower

A nun, four orphans and a glitchy robot on a quest for beauty. . . what could possibly go wrong? Princess, Fabio, Pigtails and Curly from St. Mary's Home for Unfortunate Children are on a fieldtrip to the botanical garden to celebrate Princess' birthday. On the way they meet a curious groundskeeper and the fireworks begin –– quite literally. In the autumn of 2014, the Advanced Studio Production class at Huntington University launched the 'Fire Flower' film project based on a 1-minute story reel by Kayla Mitchell. The experiment was to see what would happen if a talented group of student animators set out to make a short film with the time, budget, and resources of a commercial stop-motion studio. The results, five years later, is a beautifully crafted (and irreverently funny) 6-minute stop-motion film for all ages to enjoy.

Blyth

Blyth

This short film/music video hybrid is an exploration of the witch burnings and the dancing plagues of the 16th Century which swept across Europe like wildfire. It is a permission to be wild, to lose oneself in the chaos magic of the unknown and to answer the howling of our inner call to dance to our own blaze of individual heart fire we each contain. Shot in the moorland of Cornwall, Liana’s patriarchal ancestral lands, nature plays a large part in the creation of this world, as do the wonderful performers hired to encapsulate the witches and townspeople who seek to destroy them.
