Chocolate Bear, in its present guise, exists to make short films. Short films that avoid cliches in exploring the human condition.
Financially, we aim to make good quality on a shoestring. If a story is written well it can be made for less as it’s the narrative that holds sway.
A good original story is priceless.
We’re always open to collaboration at a production level but will remain defiantly independent. In the long term we aim to make longer films which continue to explore ‘this mortal flesh’; but that’s then, and this is now.
As filmmaking is a balance between mimesis and diagesis let’s write no more and simply do.
