Magpie (2024)

Frankie Currie & Terri Silver (Directors)

“Working with Ross is such a creatively freeing exercise, we've never run into an idea he wasn't up for trying. I've seen the man take a violin bow to an electric bass and feed it through a modular synth to create a sound like a synapse backfiring... he's quite good at his job.”

— Frankie Currie

Synopsis

Riley's trail of debts and lies finally catches up to him as he tries to dig himself out of a hole in this one-shot crime comedy. 

Crime / Comedy. 16 Minutes. 


More info 

Magpie was shot over the course of one day, and involved long tracking shots in busy city environments (hence the high-visibility outfit I’m wearing in the BTS photos…). 


In keeping with the single day the production took place over, I also created the score in a single day, working with Frankie in my home studio to create something appropriately frenetic and crazed.
