Surreally Good
Say hello to Scott – The finest ‘Edutainment Officer’ in the business, a leading expert in “Overhead animation and lo-fi storytelling”, a renowned descendent of the ‘Turnbull Family Edutainment programme’ and a grieving son. The only problem is, he’s gone a little bit ’Freaky-Deaky’.
With the Wilkes Booth Corporation breathing down his neck, our charming yet unreliable narrator is struggling with the pressure of real life. Will he succumb to the lure of big money boom-boom, or realise his artistic integrity and tell the story he’s always wanted to tell?
