Fat Chance

Director: Toby Leslie & Hugo Curry

Fat Chance was part of Film Four’s Short Cuts initiative. The film follows a real-time bungled heist in a South London betting shop.

We worked on the original score and also the sound design. To enhance the build-up of tension throughout the robbery scene, the rhythmical pounding of horses hooves was treated with effects and incorporated into the soundtrack.

Fat Chance was nominated for best short film at the Rushes Soho Short Film Festival 2001, and was also shown as part of the Kodak Cinematography Showcase at the BAFTA theatre, Piccadilly. The film has been shown at festivals Worldwide, and has been screened on Channel Four and Film Four.
