Welcome!
The Hawkinsian Institute is a one man multi-media organisation. In other words, all the creative pursuits by our founder and leader, Ian Hawkins.
Ian lives in Manchester, England and always likes to have something on the go. Most recently, digital filmmaking has been Ian's preferred medium. However, Ian likes to dabble with music, creative writing, photography and a bit of design.
Use this site to find out more about Ian's past projects and what he's been up to lately. You could even email the Institute and let us know your thoughts.
Hawkinsian Productions
Hawkinsian Productions was the Institite subsidiary established in 2003. This was the year that Ian fulfilled a long-cherished ambition and bought a camcorder.
Almost immediately, Ian embarked on the steep learning curve of digital filmmaking. Though still on that curve, Ian has had some surprising successes in this field - relatively speaking, of course.
To find out more about the very latest Hawkinsian production take a look at My DDR T-Shirt. This exciting new project is currently in production. Watch the whole thing come together here. For downloads and information about Ian's most successful short film to date, check out the Meet Steve pages.
