About Offcut
Offcut is a short film directed by Petroc Menuhin, which follows the adventures of a discarded scrap of wood who comes to life and finds meaning in music.  

Offcut was produced by Tosin Ogunleye and Ethen Dent, and completed as part of the third year animation Module PR6001, a Studio Project worth 60 Credits. In this module our animation and VFX students join forces to produce a visual effects (VFX) project, with three months to take the project from initial pitch to final render.
