With a budget of just £4k, we shot two half-days on location in Northern France with a skeletal crew, ie... just the two of us. Having become accustomed to large crews on our commercial projects it was quite liberating returning to a more guerilla production, although we had to pull in a lot of favours to make it happen. Add to the mix rough seas, a non-English speaking lead coupled with our lack of French, and a corpse... it was certainly memorable.

    Thanks, we were certainly aiming tonally for 'romantic tragedy' rather than depression.

    Superb and controlled imagery through out in this excellent, if bleak, short film.

    I expect that is what happens in France if the wife burns the 'Bouillabaisse'.

    A serious business.

    Wow, amazing work well done! Great to see this caliber of work with just a 2 man crew.
    Was it 300fps throughout?
  • David Procter plus 2 months ago
    Thanks Joaquin. We've been collaborating for 8 years now so there is a level of understanding and communication between us that without, I doubt we could have achieved what we did. It was varied rates from 50-120fps.
