TowleVision
TowleVision is an independent studio dedicated to the cinematic adaptation and cultural preservation of literary texts, with a particular emphasis on Scandinavian storytelling traditions, alongside other European and public-domain works. Through illustrated narration, careful pacing, sound design, and thoughtfully designed captioning, the studio produces both short- and long-form cinematic stories that reinterpret classic literature for contemporary audiences while preserving its emotional and symbolic core.
Each project is developed with attention to restraint, continuity, and accessibility, treating literature not as content to be consumed quickly, but as cultural material worth holding still.
Selected Works
TowleVision projects focus primarily on Scandinavian literature, complemented by select works from other European traditions. The studio’s catalog includes both short-form adaptations and longer narrative works, unified by a consistent cinematic language and emphasis on timeless themes.
The Little Match Girl
A short-form cinematic adaptation of Hans Christian Andersen’s story, exploring isolation, warmth, and imagination through restrained imagery, narration, and captioned storytelling.
The Emperor’s New Clothes
A short-form visual and narrative interpretation emphasizing tone, pacing, and irony over spectacle.
A Christmas Carol
A long-form cinematic adaptation of Charles Dickens’s novella, presenting the story’s moral and emotional arc through extended pacing, illustrated narration, and atmospheric continuity.
Studio Practice
TowleVision operates as a small, independent studio emphasizing cultural continuity, accessibility, completion, and repeatable craft. Projects are approached as part of an ongoing artistic practice rather than one-off productions, with care given to pacing, visual coherence, and long-form structure.
Captioning is treated not only as an accessibility feature, but as an integral part of the viewing experience—designed to support comprehension, inclusion, and visual harmony. The studio’s work is intended to remain legible and meaningful across audiences, contexts, and time.
Collaboration & Studio Services
In addition to original works, TowleVision offers limited-scope studio support for artists, writers, and cultural organizations seeking cinematic presentation of finished or near-finished material. Collaboration is selective and project-based, prioritizing clarity of intent, fixed scope, accessibility, and thoughtful execution.
