Handmade Rockets is an independent film company which started as a partnership between
A.K. Treasure and Jed T.E. Rhodes.
We specialise in bringing imaginative sci-fi, horror and fantasy stories to life!
About us:
After meeting through a local tabletop wargaming club, A.K. Treasure and Jed T.E. Rhodes soon began collaborating on Doctor Who fanfictions. It had been Treasure’s lifelong dream to direct and, finding that Rhodes was an accomplished actor and talented musician, their collaborations turned into fan films that they released under Lungbarrow Brothers between 2011 and 2015.
In 2016 they decided to focus on original content and to create a short film that would display their technical proficiency whilst demonstrating their ability to present cohesive visual storytelling. They began gathering resources and their first short film as Handmade Rockets went into development.
Future plans involve more short films and a feature length film already in development.
Rhodes continues to make music for Handmade Rockets and others while Treasure makes props under Nocturnal Space Workshop, releasing videos on YouTube when he remembers.
