Ministry of Jingle

Ministry of jingle

I wrote and directed a short film called MINISTRY OF JINGLE, produced by Piki Films, the production company of Taika Waititi and Carthew Neal (Jojo Rabbit, Hunt for the Wilderpeople.) It starts Moana Ete, Kura Forrester, Jonny Brugh and Jaxson Cook as office workers of the governmental department, The Ministry of Jingle. It premiered at Show Me Shorts in NZ, and has played at festivals across the world, including Palms Springs Film Festival, Flickerfest, Kino Short Fest, and others.

When ambitious song-smith Melody joins the Ministry of Jingle, a Government team that creates public safety jingles, she begins to drown, quite literally, in rising floodwaters, and a tsunami of work and climate anxiety.
