Written, directed, scored and edited by Wayne Gerard Trotman
Red Moon Productions Ltd has produced award-winning films and
videos, including Ashes to Ashes, one of the world's first digital
movies and Britain's first martial arts film.
Conceived in 1993, written in 1994 and released in 1999,
Ashes to Ashes
is a thriller written and directed by independent filmmaker
Wayne Gerard Trotman. It is is characterised by a complex script,
unpredictable twists, dark humour and a complete disregard for
political correctness.
Ashes to Ashes premiered at the Raindance Film Festival where it was described as ‘Kung fu with an arty London
twist’. No wires, CGI, stunt doubles, mats or pads were used in the
filming and production of Ashes to Ashes.
The grueling shoot in May 1998, testifies to the sheer energy and
fanatical dedication employed in making the film. This energy is
apparent in the performance of the ensemble cast, and in the
expertly staged and executed fight sequences featuring the skills of
several martial arts experts.
London: Metropolis of the Future
is a 1994 short film by Wayne Gerard Trotman.
Aspects of travel, entertainment, religion and commerce are visually
explored in the film, which without dialogue or narrative structure,
produces a dream-like and futuristic view of London.
London: Metropolis of the Future premiered at the 1995 British Short
Film Festival where it was very well received. "The Future Begins
Today."
