The script for Microscopic Cog is a masterclass in tight, intelligent storytelling, blending razor sharp dialogue with a monologue driven narrative that pulls the audience straight into Joe’s world. The writing flows with a rhythmic, almost hypnotic quality—balancing dark humour, tension, and raw emotion. Every line is deliberate, every moment layered with subtext, as Joe unravels his past through monologues during a high-stakes poker game where the real gamble isn’t money it’s revenge. With its cinematic flow and distinctive, confident voice, this is storytelling designed to grip, surprise, and stay with you long after the final hand is played."

In just two weeks, we begin shooting the proof of concept for Microscopic Cog. It’s taken grit, favours, and every penny I could pull together to get this far – but it’s happening, the camera’s nearly rolling, and the team is ready to go.

But this is only step one. To finish the full short film the way it’s meant to be told – with the scale, style, and integrity it deserves – I’ll be launching an Indiegogo campaign. The pre-launch page is nearly ready, and when it drops, you will have your opportunity to support it and become part of something amazing.

Keep watching. The new campaign’s coming soon

Locations are more than just backdrops in Microscopic Cog, they are characters in their own right, shaping the world and atmosphere of the film. We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve already secured the Blacksmith’s location, a gritty, authentic setting that will add raw texture and visual depth to the story. Every location has been carefully chosen to enhance the film’s rich period detail and immersive storytelling, transporting audiences into Joe’s world. These spaces don’t just frame the action; they breathe life into it, making every scene feel real.
