This is the first of two collaborations I have worked on with animator Will Becher.  He created the piece for his final year degree project at Edinburgh College and asked me to write a suitable theme for the old man character.  'Boxed In' won twelve international awards and was nominated for a BAFTA.

The second collaboration with Will Becher is a short animation titled 'Off Beat', commissioned by Aardman Animation; it was the company's first HD short.

Synopsis 

In a simple world where watching TV and eating biscuits is paramount, a news report about a police holiday causes a stir. One viewer decides this is the perfect opportunity for a crime without punishment and sets of on a mission to steal his neighbours TV.
