A Shot in the Dark (with Gavin Hoey)

A vintage cinematic thriller, where the plot gets thicker, and the danger is never far behind..

Step into the shadows of a vintage thriller where the plot gets thicker, and the danger is never far behind. Welcome to A Shot in the Dark, where every shadow hides a secret, and every glance could be your last.

The Old Manor’s lights are low, and the tensions inside are high. Grab your camera, your charm, and your best alibi and ready to slip into a world of danger, deception, and plot twists - where the only thing more dangerous than the story... is who you trust.

It’s your time to shine in a vintage cinematic adventure, where the action is real, the stakes are high, and the ending?

Well, that's up to you.

The Fairytale Kingdom

Are you ready for your Happily Ever After?

Tucked away at the edge of the world, a hidden fairytale kingdom awaits, nestled within the walls of an ancient manor house.

Beyond its grand doors, winding corridors lead to undiscovered worlds.

The walls whisper of forgotten secrets, and its halls are filled with a quiet magic that beckons the curious. It’s a place where time stands still, sunlight filters through in soft beams and magic is always in the air.

This is your invitation to a story only a few are lucky enough to find...

Are you ready for your Happily Ever After?

Murder on the Express: The Return Journey with Gavin Hoey

A film noir photography workshop with Gavin Hoey as lighting director, disguised as a deadly game of Cluedo on a vintage railway.

One murder. Too many suspects. And you, holding a camera like it’s the only weapon you’ve got. Spoiler: it might be.


Murder on the Express: The Return Journey isn’t your typical photography workshop. It’s a sleuth of cinematic shadows, secrets, and sharp suits, set in the haunting echo of a vintage train station.


You’ll be dropped straight into a film noir railway station with flickering lights, cryptic clues, and characters who lie smoother than their pressed lapels. You’ll craft images drenched in noir style with stark contrasts, sharp angles, and smoke-filled rooms strike as you hunt for the murderer among a cast of suspects, each hiding secrets darker than the last. This is style and suspense with a cigarette burn around the edges.


When the smoke clears and all that’s left is the truth—will your photos crack the case, or just capture your final mistake?
