DEVIL MAKES WORK is a visually dark and sinister short film illustrating the devil’s twisted view of humanity; our hopes and dreams, life, love and struggle together with the sacrifices we make for success.
Written and directed by GUY SOULSBY whose aim was to create a high-concept horror short that could rival the likes of Hollywood feature films, across all areas of the production, acting, visual effects, production design, editing and sound. Guy worked with regular collaborators, including Director of Photography NICHOLAS BENNETT, Production Designer NOAM PIPER, along with Editor NICK ARMSTRONG and Composer SEB JUVILER.
