Founded by Maya Derrington, Nicky Gogan, and Paul Rowley, STILL FILMS
is a production company dedicated to cinema of high artistic content.
The STILL FILMS team have been working together for over a decade on
a wide variety of projects. Our collective experience as a team is far
greater than the youthfulness of our company would suggest. Our work
together began in 1999 with the founding of the Darklight
Film Festival which was set up to support both digital filmmaking
and animation in Ireland, and promote Irish filmmakers internationally.
Since then we have collaborated on two features and a stack of shorts,
museum and gallery installations and of course run the film festival
annually.
The mission of our company is to produce highly creative work using
cutting edge technology, and to market our films to the widest audience
possible taking full advantage of traditional and new avenues of distribution.
The company focuses on the production of artist films, animations and
documentaries. Working on projects from art installations to feature
films, we are a forward looking company that works at the cutting edge
of digital technology. We are committed to pursuing non-conventional
approaches to filmmaking in all genres: drama, documentary, horror,
science fiction, and animation. We are dedicated to providing a framework
for the development of emerging creative talents and local filmmakers
that we have developed relationships with through our work with Darklight.
Our work shows around the world, in museum and galleries, as well as
at film festivals and cinemas.
