film project #2
trance
memoirI had a wonderful opportunity to work with these two amazing actors: Bastiaan Tsavo Raath and Nakita Kohan for my third short film during the New York Film Academy. I actually had them on my A-list when I submitted the actor request sheet. Since we had to compete one another for our choice of actors, we may not get the people we wanted. Luckily, I got both of my preferred actor and actress. Shooting during the summer of LA was really unpleasant. IT WAS HOT! I find it quite challenging to stay in focus while sweating and parching under the sun. Finally I managed to get the shots I needed despite all the challenges that were present. I learned a lot since then, including how to make quick and right decisions for the shoot, communicating clearly to the cast and crew, and also importantly time management. | aboutTrance is a short film that I wrote, edited, and directed during the 4 weeks digital film production course offered by the New York Film Academy. The story explores the mind of a con-man (Bastiaan Tsavo) who gets conned as he seeks answers to find out what truly happened to him. Language : English Duration : 06:08 Genre : Thriller, Film noir |
