Snovonne's short film "COPE [illustrations of the mind]" to premiere Oct 5th

"COPE [illustrations of the mind]" is a psychological dark fantasy art film by Snovonne 'Sno' Drake.

It revolves around the psychoanalytical concept of dreams being the communication of our subconscious. In this 20 minute musical short film, she interprets her psychological issues, struggles and phobias through her most occurring nightmares.

The film will have its North American premiere on October 5, 2024 at the 6th annual American Horrors Film Festival in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. You can get your tickets here.

The film’s main protagonist is Sno. She plays herself as well as all other ‘versions’ of herself. She’s guided through her nightmares by Mr. Sid Drake, a modern clown, portrayed by electro-metal musician Billy T. Cooper.  The film also features a guest appearance by Domenico Martucci, who’s a prominent force in the Italian drag-queen movement.

The whole project was done by Snovonne in its entirety, from the screenplay to editing and all CGI animation. Given that the whole piece of work is set into, and guided by, music - the score is also written by Snovonne. It consists of varied short chapters of music that take the viewer on a bizarre trip through the artist’s nightmares.

The score was mixed by Simon Johansson (Soilwork, Wolf) at SolnaSound Production and mastered by the award - winning Thomas 'Plec' Johansson at The Panic Room, Sweden. The end credits of the film introduce a brand new, yet unreleased, song by Snovonne - “Dreams on Death Row”, produced by Eddy Cavazza at Silent Ghost Production, Italy.
