Adventure Brothers

Short Film (9 min 27 Secs)

Paul and James are brothers. They do not get on well with each other. Forced to isolate together during the lockdown of 2020, they struggle to coexist in each other’s company. However, when they discover a sketchbook with unusual powers everything begins to change as a whole world of possibilities presents itself to the pair.
Will this discovery bring them closer together? Or will it drive them further apart?

*No budget, big imaginations…*

*"Adventure Brothers"* was created and filmed by Paul & James during the UK Lockdown of 2020. It was shot entirely within their own home, and made with absolutely no budget whatsoever.

By using some old green bits of material, their grandmother’s ottoman, a few cushions, Adobe Draw on an iPad and Final Cut Pro X animating skills, they were able to bring *“Adventure Brothers”* to life.
