Tim
Hogg and Yvonne Davies:
Room
Service
Tim Hogg is a writer and director
who focuses on comedy dramas. Yvonne Davies is an Art Director and
Editor who has gained experience at Aardmans and the BBC. Tim and
Yvonne worked with Picture This on Room Service, a collaborative
project, over a year. The film was developed with a large crew including
teams of set dressers and model and it involved extensive special
effects, set building and art direction. It was shot on location
at Aardmans feature film studios at Aztec West and funded by South
West Media Development Agency and the National Lottery.
Room Service begins when a mysterious intruder armed with
a collection of home-made tools & devices breaks into the bedroom
of a sleeping woman. It is set in a near future, where technology
owes more to the 1930’s than to the 21st century.
