Thank you for watching!
One day back in november 2022 me and my wife Beatrice drove to this backroad, just a couple of kilometers from where we live, to film this short movie. While struggling with deer flies and inconsistent light we managed to shoot some clips in a couple of hours, before it was dark around 15:30.
I decided to shoot only with the available natural light. To make the image look interesting we had to move and position both the car and Beatrice for every shot.
Also the light changed quite a bit from the first shot to the last, so it was important to organize the shoot’s at location and keep the luminance levels consistent.
In post I pushed the 8 bit image as much as I could to create my previsualized desolate and sinister look. There was also a good amount of work with the sound design and mixing.
I hope you like it and feel free to drop a comment with your thoughts or questions.
Filmed on Sony A6400, HLG3, Sigma 16mm f/1.4 and the Samyang 24mm f/1.8 FE.
Color corrected with Leeming LUT Pro III, followed by a desolate and sinister color grade.
