Animations and films for Niedermayer & Hart
Niedermayer & Hart is a horror/thriller written by my father Martin Johnson and released earlier this year. The book is available as an e-book or paperback from Amazon, can be ordered through a bookshop, or directly from the author's website: www.mj-johnson.com
My father asked me if I would design the cover and sleeve artwork for the book. I didn't realise initially just how much time and effort goes into making a book cover work, but it was a hugely rewarding and enjoyable process and I'm really glad the old man asked me to do it (and that he trusted me to!).
Shortly after it had been released I helped with filming the prologue of the book as an internet promo, starring the old man himself as narrator (his training at RADA came in handy for that) on a cold and spooky night. Later I made the short teaser trailer: As Night Approaches, also narrated by my father (good voice-over Dad). This was made using some animation, and a whole lot of desiccated coconut (you'll see why - I was running on a tight production budget and couldn't afford the snow machine).
I also made the following stop-motion animations as a bit of light-hearted promo for the book. All credit due to my Mum, who I think had the idea of the cat and mouse duo in the first place (at least that's what she says!). I hope you'll enjoy - it has absolutely nothing to do with the actual plot of the book if you're wondering - and by the way, it is a great read!
