I’m Scott aka gothic bambi. Welcome to my Magic Forest 🏹

I make films and music. The best way to describe my work is PHANTASMAGφRiA. A graphic and visceral mix of the gothic and the whimsical. 🫀

Right now I’m finishing up my short film LA PETiTE MφRT, developing a microbudget web show and another short, and writing my next feature, with my writing partner Hannah.

I’ve made music for all of these projects, which I turned into CiNEMATIC PφP MUSiC about the characters and themes. You can hear some on my TikTok and in full, uncensored, on my Patreon. My approach to music is naive and playful - everything is hand drawn as midi in GarageBand, cuz that’s all I know how to do! All of my vocals recorded via iPhone, then polished using Adobe Enhance Speech.

My style is glamorous, maximalist, and detailed - inspired by the likes of Derek Jarman, James Bidgood, Natalie Wynn, Gregg Araki, Anna Biller - artists who made $5 look like $5000. Blood, sweat, & rose petals. 💋

You can also watch my first feature “X” here, which I made with my creative partners in 2016. It makes me cringe now, since I’ve improved a lot since then… but it financed my current work and introduced me to much of my creative family. 🎥🖤 I made a gothpop concept album for the film, as well as three surreal music videos.

So you’re into what you see, follow me, down the trapdoor, odyssey into the sideshow speakeasy…
