Restless and harassed, Martin books in for hypnotherapy with Chloe. Both the ‘trance-maker’ and the hypnotised get more than they bargained for from the session...

This episode is a collaboration between 5MOD and US based writer Germaine Shames. The piece is wonderfully written and provided ample opportunity to create my preferred metaphysical visuals. Once I had heard a draft recording of the script, I noticed that certain phrases were sparking off images and sticking with me; as with any good writing. Due to the fact that the piece circles around hypnotherapy (and the endless possibilities therein) I thought it appropriate to reintroduce text within the picture, as in ‘Can You Do That, Episode 2.

The results, after a certain amount of CAD, are a mixture of photographs and superimposed quotes from Germaine’s script using an invented typography specific to this short film.

This, being the longest episode yet produced, takes you on a journey as much as the protagonists and I hope that the film captures that.

New writers, performers and visual artists needed for Series 4. If you’re interested in what we do then contact us directly

Rebranding Doubt

A new look for Five Minutes of Doubt, a podcast that I’ve been involved with for the last two years or so. 2019 sees the return of the series and the relaunch of all of our content. Here I’ve included some colour studies of the main logo. The concept was to produce a new image that refers to audio and a sense of the individual.

Five Minutes of Doubt is an online platform for short plays (around the five minute mark in length) and we are holding an open call for writers, artists and performers. For more information please visit www.5mod.net
