Nikos Kellis studied animation at the Glammorgan Center of Art and Design Technology (GCADT) in Cardiff, Wales. Since then, he has worked as a freelance animator and CG artist. “Drag me” is his first “non student” film.
“DRAG ME” is a story about a “deadly” girl with a “slightly” violent and disturbed response to the paranoia and alienation that the “concrete jungle” can generate. The set is the sleazy backstreets of Athens. The outcome is “Drag me: An Urban Music Tale”.
