Chaotica

2013, 4 minutes

An entertainment Business encapsulating heritage stories and culture through trans-media story telling

Inside an upmarket nightclub, rave music is heard. A Woman, Chaotica, sits on a bar stool sipping wine. She appears to be a nightclub hostess who introduces a stranger (direct address to camera) to the world she inhabits, it's a warning about the nightlife, here in this bar. Half way through the music segues into ‘Omen-style music’ the general rhythm is faster, pacier, the kind of music that makes your heart thump uncomfortably in your chest; the music is always there in the background - playing mutely but causing suspense. The backdrop shifts dramatically, is disorienting. From time to time dogs bark loudly in the background. Throughout Chaotica becomes more mysterious, there is a secret to be unearthed. Her warning draws to an end with a surprising and an unnerving outcome.
