As you may know that our studio is currently producing a new short with a working title “Wife”. It’s based on a short story by Roald Dahl. We’ve found all the actors, sound mixers and still have no budget.
September, 26 — “Morning” premiere went very well. Photos are avaliable here. Most of the 30 people liked the movie and they liked all the old stuff either.
Now everybody can see the film: download it (better quality) or watch it on our site (easier). And we wont mind if you tell us how much you liked or disliked the film here.
As far as we don´t have a title for our upcoming action short, we´re just gonna call it Action Movie. So the first day of shooting went very well. The best thing was that we shot the most complicated scene in the whole movie. The car was chasing the motorcycle and they shot each other with an assault rifle and a pistol.
Our cinematographers Ivan and Kostya were belt up in the back of the van and shot the bike and the car from there.
We are currently shooting the new short Morning. It’s about a guy who wakes up after some party and tries to remember what had happened there.
We’ve already shot about a half of the needed material. This Sunday we plan to complete the shooting process and start post-production. The short is going to be released in early August.
June 5, 2008, on Thursday, 8:00pm MSK — the new Flying Sugar Studio short film Case premiere. Its production (including casting, shooting, editing and sound mixing) took about 4 months.
We ask everybody who wants to go the premiere to tell us about it here or in a letter.
Address: Moscow, Prospekt Mira (Avenue of Peace), 118, “Cooluar” Club — metro station Alekseevskaya.
For those who are either too young to have seen or too old to remember :-) An 8-minute short film Bedhead (1991) was shot with an 8-mm camcorder and won a lot of small film festivals.
Here is a British independent studio Blue-Tongue Films. Those who visit Future Shorts or just like to watch movies on YouTube could have seen their short film “Spider”.
Except “Spider” these guys make feature films (you can watch trailers on their site) and music videos. They also shoot some shorts. I liked “Lucky”. It could be useful for young filmmakers to watch it in the perspective of how it was made.
This photo is some sort of a distillation of the whole filming process: bunch of people gather around a small object and do some strange looking things to make it appear nicely in the frame.
In January 18, 2008, on Friday, at 8:00pm MSK “Birthday” premiere will take place. It’s been a long time since production of this short film began (almost a year).
We ask everybody who wants to go the premiere tell us about it in comments or in a letter, because “Cooluar” club where everything is going to happen is not a very big one.
Until that you can watch movie trailer or take a look at movie stills. And also you can think out some occupation yourself :-)
