TIGER RAID: Exclusive Damien Molony Character Photo and Titles Shoot

December 10, 2015

We don’t have a release date for Damien’s upcoming feature Tiger Raid yet, but we do have an early Christmas present, an exclusive behind the scenes photo kindly sent to us by Story film.

The new image of Damien shows him in costume as his character Paddy, complete with the bandit-like blacked-out eyes we first had a glimpse of in the stunning promo photos released in February this year.

The film company’s sister site @DixonBaxi tweeted the pic to the forum today to help ‘keep us going’ until the film festival premiere is announced.

We also have our first exciting glimpse of the Tiger Raid film titles, details of which have also been revealed.

The 8 week process of creating the titles involved using “a bold and dynamic blend of live action and design to create a 2m 23s sequence that became an abstracted representation of the mind and thoughts of the main character.”

But that one quote alone is doing a disservice to the fascinating, in-depth account on the creation of the film’s titles, head over to DixonBaxi.com for the full blog entry.

We’re hugely grateful to Story Film – who have previously shared first official promo images and an exclusive glimpse of Damien in the film with us – for another exclusive Tiger Raid treat.

The more we see of the stylish and evocative imagery for Damien’s upcoming film, the more excited we are for its release.

The feature has completed post production, had its first private screening, and will premiere at a film festival to be announced soon.

We’ll share more news as it happens, meanwhile check out what we know about the film so far.

Tiger Raid is directed by Simon Dixon, written by Simon Dixon, Gareth Coulam Evans and Mick Donnellan, produced by Story Films and Samson Films, co-financed by The irish Film Board and Ingenious and international sales are handled by Bankside Films.
