Anglo Klaxon Pictures is a film and video production company that was established in 2009. They specialize in practical effects, specialist photography and set productions. With a resume of short films including The Trial, Apartment Eleven and a wide variety of film festival selections under their belt, they are preparing for the release of Ignition. A short film where a man wakes in a concrete chamber and is forced to play an intense game of survival. While the film hasn’t been released yet, they did release this behind the scenes video of a practical effects shoot for the film, involving the shooting of a fireball as it blazes through a scaled miniature corridor set.
Flight, a short film they shot, explores the inside of a dilapidated shed through the perspective of a moth using a succession of photographs and demonstrates a unique idea and interesting form of story telling. The Trial and Apartment Eleven are both suspenseful and captivating short films with a nice touch of Sci-fi. With the wide range of experience these guys have, few great short films in their collection and some exciting effects, it will be interesting to see what they bring to the table with Ignition. You can see most of the short films for yourself on their Vimeo account and decide which one is your favorite.
