Kickstart The Visitant from Nick Peterson & Jon Heder

After the success of their slightly disturbing live-action/animation film Drained, writer/director Nick Peterson once again teams up with actor Jon Heder (taking up the producer role) to start production on their latest short The Visitant. Described as an edge-of-your seat supernatural horror, Peterson’s latest film is the story of a mother who battles to protect [...]

Kickstart Cryosphere

Long term DN friend and accomplished filmmaker Kurtis Hough seems incapable of taking a break from creating (something we’ll be talking to him about in the near future). His latest venture is Cryosphere, a short film about the melting glacier in Juneau, Alaska. Kurt plans to debut Cryosphere free online on Friday 30th November, but [...]

Kickstart Bendito Machine

It was over four years ago that we spoke to Jossie Malis about the first two episodes of his shadow play inspired ten part animation series Bendito Machine. Well somehow we failed to bring you episode 3, but that just means you get the double pleasure of watching that and the freshly released episode 4 [...]

Sean Dunne: Oxyana

If like us, here at DN, you’ve followed the career of Sean Dunne closely, you’ll be giddy with excitement to hear that the talented Brookyln filmmaker has a feature in the works. Sean is currently trying to raise the money on Kickstarter to make his documentary Oxyana possible, so if you’re just as desperate as [...]

Kickstart Man-child

You know what it’s like. You wait around for months and months hoping against hope that the filmmaker you really respect, the one who’s proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that they support the filmmaking community and is working ceaselessly each and everyday to help all of us make it to the top of [...]

Kickstart Path of Blood

When El Vez posted Eric Power’s paper craft animation Path of Blood – Demon at the Crossroads of Destiny I was immediately struck by two thoughts: “Why does that bastard keep beating me to all the best films”, closely followed by “I wish I could see more of that brutal ninja action!” Well if we [...]

Kickstart SOLIPSIST

It’s been a while since director Andrew Huang joined us to discuss his identity seeking machine, experiemental animation Doll Face. Since then he’s been more than busy producing a slew of impressive commercials and music videos but the time has come for Andy to once again turn his attention back to the personal project with [...]

Kickstart Warm Earth, Which I’ve Been Told

We’ve been following the work of filmmaker, photographer and artist Kurtis Hough for nearly as long as DN’s been running and in that time he’s brought us an impressive range of projects which have never disappointed. Well Kurt’s newest project Warm Earth, Which I’ve Been Told is probably his most ambitious yet: This is a [...]
