Film trailer project to celebrate Pink Floyd’s legendary album The Dark Side of the Moon reaching its 40th anniversary.
Inspired by the surreal imagery and music that fills the original album, I directed films using a collage of digital imaging, CGI, studio-based effects and hand-crafted elements. I wanted to produce a depth and richness in the films that reflected the classic tone of Pink Floyd’s art from Storm Thorgerson and Hipgnosis.
The main film served as a trailer to an original radio drama based on the album, written by playwright Sir Tom Stoppard. An extended film loop was also created that complemented the audio experience online on BBC Radio 2.
