The project was based around the high concept idea of creating a series of short, amusing films that could be viralled in order to promote the Stanley Kubrick Archive. The archive itself would provide the source material in that any striking concepts or ideas that were not used in final film productions would be fair game for us to recycle by creating humourous narratives around it.

The creative element came from shooting a short section of footage for a piece based on the eponymous sci fi chin scratcher ’2001′. Visitors to this site may or may not know that an original concept for the supercomputer HAL came from IBM and featured retractable arms that the operators could sit in. We took this idea and ran with it…

The proposal was put together as part of the MA Media, Communication & Critical Practice at University of the Arts, London. The results were screened as part of a pitch held at the British Film Institute, Southbank, London
