It was sometime around 2000 that I came up with the idea of formalising a film company and setting it up to create new projects. I decided that I knew enough creative people on a personal level that would like to be involved. I approached people from each artistic discilpine and by the time that Pendragon Pictures (Europe) Ltd became a working company, I had a graphic designer, an animator, a musician, a writer, an actress, and myself as a filmmaker. These people would be able to advise and directly work on any future projects and have a say in the direction of the company. I felt that this collection of creative disciplines would help to complete projects of the highest quality with the minimum of expense. Below is the company logo and some early projects that we completed. Besides what is listed here we also have another five short films ready to go into production and three feature film scripts in various stages of completion.
