Hello everyone,
A friend and I are both actors who were sick of waiting for a audition.
So we started a company to produce ourselves.
First project was a video for a song.
I wrote a story to it, and asked the cast.
The friend of My, did the production Side and I did the directing.
Inspired by Russian film noir, a lil bit of expressionism I tried to work with As Much silhouette As possible. First shooting day we used a 550d of mine and because raw was not possible in normal resolution I made a custom picture style because i knew we didnt have grading head room.
The second shooting day i rented a 5d3 and ended up loving it so Much i bought one before the third and last shooting day. The cameraman warned me constantly that the iso was too high but i rather had the iso cranked up than spending a lot of money just to fill up the scene to get the same results minus noise.
The positive Side about being a Actor for 7 years is that you can ask the Actor you want and you can direct someone with less words.
The whole project costed 600 euro's: food on set, fuel costs for the actors and the one day renting the camera.
