Over the last couple of years, a passion project has been writing some music inspired by the books of @paolini , my all-time favourite books. I've now put them all in one place, below - including a 'Murtagh' suite which hasn't been shared to X before! youtube.com/watch?v=KHnD-gAJ…

Thrilled to report that this delightful documentary which I worked on in late 2021 has won the Postgraduate Factual award from the Royal Television Society!
The Postgraduate Factual award goes to This Tree is Hostile, “a visually strong & intriguing piece... and a playful & beautiful approach to the contemporary issue of loneliness” - well done Hugh Clegg, Jean de Wilde d’Estmael, Jón Atli Gudjónsson, Aaron King & Team #RTSStudent

It's amazing to see this film doing so well - nominated at both the RTS postgraduate awards and the Student World Impact Film Festival. The judges of the latter described it as a 'testament to the power of imagination' and 'a masterclass in world-building'!

And last but definitely not least, a great creative team including Nell Butler, Genevieve Walsh and outstanding wordsmith @samcreatesdrama , who made such hilarious lyrics and script that my jaw ached at the end of the first performance from constant grinning! 📸 @SteveBestPics
