After visiting our elevator set, first time screen writer Jordan Thomas left with an idea for a story. Jordan asked if we would film it and we were eager to make his tense script the last short of 2025. And it would be the last short filmed in the elevator. Fortunate to have the enormously talented Ben Locke in the Lead, Claustrophobia was a great end to 2025.

Currently in 2026 Claustrophobia is going through the festival circuit. Claustrophobia has already won Best Drama Short at the Austin Micro Film Festival and Ben was nominated for Best Actor at the Couch Film Festival in Toronto. Not bad for a short made in about four hours. We are so honored to have our cast and crew get recognized and rewarded for their hard work.
