"JABBERWOCKY" (SHORT FILM)
It's been a cold winter in Minnesota, so here's a cheery heart-warming flick to watch by the fire! Okay fine, it's a dark fantasy-horror short film that mostly takes place in the snow.
But here's the thing – it's one of our favorite past projects, and it puts our love of visual storytelling on full display. It's unlike any other project we've ever produced, and even though we made it 6 years ago, we're still immensely proud of how it turned out.
Written and directed by Ted Eschweiler and produced by Flight Creative Media, this short film offers a stylized twist on the classic tale of Alice in Wonderland. Jabberwocky features a voiceover of Lewis Carroll's nonsense poem of the same name, adding an extra layer of strangeness as the bizarre adaptation unfolds.
Winner of numerous awards including best cinematography, best directing and best overall film, the short was created as a part of the annual Z-Fest Film Festival, sponsored by Z-Systems – a local pro video sales and rental business in Minneapolis.
