Short film about a young man tor­ment­ed over some­thing he has done, and is torn between guilt and denial. A very clever sto­ry line fea­tur­ing only one char­ac­ter and an inter­est­ing end­ing. Music and SFX were cru­cial to the sto­ry telling and relies very much on visu­als and sound, rather than dialogue. 

Crime thriller about a pro­fes­sion­al hired killer who, after com­mit­ting a bru­tal mur­der and is on the run, resorts to kid­nap­ping his main con­tact in an attempt to escape. The sto­ry cen­tres on the rela­tion­ship between the hired killer and the hostage negotiator. 

Sea­son­al pro­mo advert com­mis­sioned by Talacrest fea­tur­ing some stun­ning cars and some cheeky girls! Hard grungy track with heavy rock style per­cus­sion and fea­tur­ing dis­tort­ed top line motifs. 

Dra­ma (extracts). On the after­noon of their grad­u­a­tion, a cou­ple, who after a mis­un­der­stand­ing come togeth­er again, face an immi­nent end in a most unex­pect­ed way. A short film direct­ed by Calum Chalmers based on a short sto­ry by Stephen King.

A short film by Gary Delaney, about the wildlife that vis­it­ed his gar­den over a twelve month peri­od, with footage for every month of the year. There was no dia­logue, so the music was essen­tial for telling the sto­ry as the sea­sons unfolded.

The open­ing cred­it sequence from the film ‘Zom­bie Res­ur­rec­tion’ with music by Dale Sum­n­er (direct­ed by Andy Phelps and Jake Hawkins 2013).

A young man arrives to meet an old Uni­ver­si­ty friend for a date, only to be quizzed by an omi­nous grand­fa­ther with a pas­sion for taxi­dermy. A short psy­cho­log­i­cal thriller star­ring Arthur Smith in his debut role as the grandad. The score com­posed by Dale most­ly fea­tures orches­tral aton­al music, to great effect. 

A man hails a lift from a stranger after his car breaks down in the mid­dle of nowhere. A psy­cho­log­i­cal short film with a sur­prise ending.
