Director / Leo Bridle
|
Leo Bridle is a young but hugely talented director, recently graduated from Arts University College Bournemouth. He has already achieved success with virals, a music video for Emily Loizeau and the amazing stop-motion short 'Train Of Thought'. Leo's career was kick-started when he won a film challenge set by 'The First Post' – the resulting 'Web 2.0' amassed over a million hits on You Tube, and gave Leo his first commission proper, 'Ultimate Media Centre'. This caught the eye of French production company 'Narcisse Films' who engaged Leo to make a music promo for chanteuse Emily Loizeau. Meanwhile Leo was making 10 x 3-minute sequences for Cbeebies show 'Green Balloon Club', for which he also designed and animated the titles. His graduation film 'Train Of Thought' took Leo in to new and exciting territory, with an engaging stop-motion technique fashioned entirely with paper and photographic cut-outs. The film saw successes at UK animation festival 'Animex' and Portuguese 'Monstra', and has been screened in over 25 festivals worldwide, including the 'British Animation Awards' and 'London Short Film Festival'.
