Ace & Swift | An Adventure Short

Film poster for adventure serial homage short, Ace & Swift. Two silhouetted men standing on a hill at sunset, pistols drawn.

Adventurers Ace and Swift played by Matthew Stogdon and Adam Gunton are buried on a beach with only their heads free.

Production still from Ace and Swift. One holds hand out to the other as they are climbing a mound. The sky is tempestous.

"In the late 1920's two adventurers set out in search of a lost artifact.. little did they know what they were getting themselves in for"

This was designed to be a fun short film in the vein of 1930′s serials and the Indiana Jones franchise. This movie features all four UK Mints behind and in front of the camera with a host of elaborate costumes, locations, props and settings.

Special thanks to Graeme and co. at Aladdin's Cave Antiques in Norwich who kindly let us film in their shop (www.aladdinscavenorwich.co.uk).
