This short animation I scored has been selected for Annecy Film Festival 2022. The animation is by the award winning director Elizabeth Hobbs and has been a long and exciting project to be involved in scoring. The film has been animated using hand painting and drawing on paper, cut outs and rotoscope.
I will link to excepts from the score soon.

They only played an excerpt on Radio 3 but it was a ‘moment’ to be on a listing with these film composers.
Limbo is in cinema’s in the UK today. New trailer featuring my score.
Also a Empire review mentions the score. ‘Hutch Demouilpied’s mournful score underlining the sheer state of it all.’
It’s not all mournful though…….!
