My Dad and the Volcano is a 2024 Scottish documentary short film directed by Gavin Reid during his filmmaking masters at The University of the West of Scotland. The documentary involves the 6ft volcano sculpture that he built for his degree show piece in 2018 at The Glasgow School of Art.[1]
Plot
editReid built a giant 6ft volcano sculpture but he didn't have anywhere adequate to keep it. Reid's father begrudgingly allowed the sculpture to be stored in his shed temporarily but it was still there five years later. Reid seeks his father's understanding of his sculpture and his artistic ambitions but he's uninterested in modern art and refuses to participate in his son's documentary.
The film premiered at the 2024 Edinburgh International Film Festival in competition for The Thelma Schoonmaker Prize for Short Filmmaking Excellence Competition.[2]
Production
editDuring Reid's masters course at The University of the West of Scotland there was an opportunity to make a documentary and his volcano sculpture that lay abandoned in his father's shed was a prominent issue in his life as his father constantly asked when he was going to get rid of it. The documentary was filmed exactly over three months with Reid mostly self shooting with a Sony PXW-Z190 handheld camcorder.
