Phantom Requiem
Film (short) by Zazie Productions (Horror and Short) Animator, Composer, Director, Producer, Sound Designer, Visual Effects Artists "Phantom Requiem" unfolds in the desolate expanse of an abandoned factory, where shadows and silence are the only remnants of a once-thrumming industrial heartbeat. In this spectral setting, a coterie of puppets emerges—ethereal figures, each step and gesture echoing the dissonant unraveling of a viewer ensnared in a psychotic fugue. Rendered in austere black-and-white, this stop-motion film marries the macabre grace of desolation with the intimate terror of mental dissolution, crafting a visual poem that is both stark and sublime.

Beyond The Silken Threads
Film by Zazie Productions Composer, Director, Producer, Sound Designer, Editor, Cinematographer, Visual Effects Artist Insects dominate the screen—macro shots of ants locked in ritual, winged predators twitching on leaf-litter, larvae spasming in shallow focus. These aren’t metaphors. They’re events, textures, signs. And they repeat, distort, overlay, blur. A bridge hangs in the air like a hallucinated ruin. A figure walks, dissolves, returns. Everything is too sharp or too soft. Colors lean toward hyperreal: bruise-violet, overripe orange, chlorophyll green. The sky stutters. The editing is feverish but never frantic—images bleed into one another, like memory misfiring under emotional duress. The soundtrack hums with low drones, reverberant clatter, what might be the inside of a throat or the slow scan of a dying cassette. The film is unafraid of silence, of waiting. At its core is the disquiet of derealization—where the world feels proximate but unreachable, rendered in unsettling detail. Each frame pulses with a sense of being both too late and too early, like déjà vu built from nature documentaries, dream fragments, and corrupted home videos. This isn’t dream logic—it’s the logic of something just waking up, not quite sure it wants to.
