Project aims

       To create a short film that captures elements of children’s fairy-tale and Disney films and combine it with adult themes of sex and adult humour in a way that the adult nature of the piece is only exposed halfway through so that until that point the viewer believes that the story is overtly childish and innocent.
       I want the story to be grounded in a fantasy time and setting so that the inclusion of magic and mysticism is feasible.
       I also wanted to make hints to our current times, such as Prince Christopher bearing resemblance to Donald Trump
       I want the story to have a medieval aesthetic representation to activities and places in modern times.
       Testament to this is the STD clinic styled aesthetically as a ramshackle wizards tent.
       Finally I wanted to parallel the witches spells to STD’s in the form of an analogy, originally I wanted to do this very subtlety but then I thought that the references to STD’s within the witches names and spells such as the name of the witch ‘Nymphitis’ and her witch group the ‘witches of syphlos’ would achieve a comic effect.

       Ultimately I wanted the story to serve as an analogy of the dangers of STD’s, evil men and even more evil women
