Little Boxes Premiere & BTS
Little Boxes, a feature film that I shot in the summer of 2021 will be having it’s world premiere at the 16th Annual Bushwick Film Festival on Thursday, October 26 at Williamsburg Cinemas (tickets available here).
I can’t wait for people to see what we accomplished with this film in such a short shooting period and with a limited crew. Director Hannah Cullen and i crafted such a unique and (in my opinion) inventive visual language for this film - utilizing spherical and anamorphic lenses to repectively separate the character’s interior world’s from their reality. From a lighting standpoint I was able to mix traditional film lighting, interactive practicals built into the set, and stage lighting from the massive overhead grid available to us (as we shot on a theatrical stage). This sort of fluid lighting was only made possible through close collaboration with Lighting Designer Chris Thielking and Gaffer Ben Duff.
