Established as a development imprint for filmmaker and screenwriter Angus Cameron, Oblique draws on his decades of experience across film, television and music, with an evolving slate of original projects. Known for his ground-breaking music videos for bands including My Bloody Valentine and the seminal 1990 documentary A Short Film About Chilling, Angus recently produced an as yet unannounced true crime feature documentary for Netflix, filmed in the United States and two years in the making. His other development work includes acquiring the screen rights to Junk and Katie Morag, both subsequently adapted into BAFTA-winning television dramas.
