Their first project, A MODERN MAGICIAN, a short film directed by Mark Heller features Primetime Emmy, Golden Globes and Olivier Award wining actor Brian Cox and was selected in competition at many film festivals including the BIFA qualifying Manchester International film festival, Liverpool International film festival, Soho film festival New York, Dam Short film festival and Sci-Fi London.
Currently on the festival circuit is short film FIST written by Lee Mattinson, directed by Andrew McVicar and supported by the BFI Network. In 2023 FIST received a nomination for Best British Short at the BAFTA qualifying London Short Film Festival and received a nomination for Best Short at the Royal Television Society Awards North East and The Borders where it won the Best Actor award for drama performance of the year.
