LAURA’S’MALS
A documentary style film short, starring Laura Moy and her tiny (ani)mals, with music from Siôn Orgon.
The ‘mals had been in storage for some time, and were coaxed out of their matchboxes for this film. Why? Because Laura had told Lara about them and Lara wanted to meet them. She was sure other people would too.
Although a little shy at first, on the second day of filming we took them into the garden and watched as their relationship unfolded.
This film was shown at Chapter Arts Centre, Cardiff as part of Wales Dance Platform, June 2015.
PAPER STATE
In Autumn 2010 Lara directed and edited her first short film through Dance4Camera3, an initiative run by Welsh Independent Dance at Newport International Film School. The soundtrack features on the B side of a new release ‘Into the Dark’ by composer Sion Orgon.
The movement explored the solitude and ritual of someone waiting to move on and was initially inspired by the remaining residents, squatters and imagined characters of a derelict estate.
The main character moves without sight, on a floor covered with tiny paper squares cut from newspapers. Using tiny scissors, the performer cuts into sheets of newspaper, in an attempt to communicate her feelings.
AINMOSNI
A one minute film short made in collaboration with Sion Orgon in 2011.
THE SHIRT

The film was shown as a performance installation with performer Cet Haf, dancing live and a soundtrack composed and recorded by Nick Jones.
