The confession
(Writer, Director, Actor, Editor)
A comedy short about a man who discovers a priest living in the cupboard under his stairs. Made with no budget outside of University and purely for the fun of it, this short satirises the notion of religion and faith whilst poking fun at its detractors and having fun with the negative connotations surrounding the church.
Filmed using Canon C100s operated by Harry Marshall, with sound by Andy Chapman and Lewis Littlehales and edited on Adobe Premiere Pro. Also starring Joel Bedworth and Holly McGratten.
