	Put Your Coat On Digital short for New Cinema Fund Amoré in an anorak. A young girl hits the bright lights of the big city with the words 'Put Your Coat On' ringing in her ears. Her coat is a symbol of her childlike innocence, a protective sheath against a grown up world, a world she suddenly finds herself immersed in when, intoxicated by the night, she decides to discard her coat. A bloodstained coat suggests a tragic end or is this just a love story after all? Written by Nick Saltrese Produced & Directed by Sol Papadopoulos Film Council and Northwest Vision Digital Shorts 2003 8x 3minute shorts from new filmmakers. View the clip Back to Top



	The Coral "Goodbye" An homage to the seventies cult classic, The Wicker Man. Dealing with themes of sacrifice and rites of passage (this being the Coral’s launch into the national arena) it represents a departure point, going from seaside scallies to being on the verge of entering the pantheon of rock stardom. The Coral ‘Goodbye’ video was a commission for Sony’s S2 record label. A 40ft Wicker Man was constructed for the shoot, based on the original drawings of Seamus Flannery (the original production designer of ‘The Wicker man’). Extras turned out in full costume to re-create the pagan cult scenes from the original movie. The video went out as part of the CD Single and was broadcast via the usual outlets, MTV etc. View the clip Back to Top
