Independent creative practice

Things made for the second look.

A small studio working somewhere between moving image, sound, digital stories and strange little experiments that refuse a useful category.

We like projects with a bit of air left inside them — work that can be playful without being disposable and thoughtful without becoming too well behaved.

Afterlight is an independent studio assembled around a loose group of filmmakers, designers, musicians and developers. Sometimes we make our own work; sometimes we help good ideas find their shape.

Most collaborations begin with a conversation rather than a brief. The interesting part usually turns up somewhere in between.

Focus Film, digital, identity, sound

Five recordings from an almost empty building

Elevators, ventilation, distant traffic and one fluorescent lamp that deserved a production credit.

The tiny web is still a nice place to get lost

Personal archives, odd experiments, forgotten pages and why not every corner of the internet needs to become a platform.
