Sometimes the best story is behind the camera. What do you think?
You've already seen this picture in one of my previous posts.
How about steemians, happy Monday to everyone, I hope you're having an excellent day, I hope that this week will be of great benefit to all of you, today I want to share with you an anecdote that brings me very good memories, I hope this week will be of great benefit to all of you.
A few years ago when I was in college a friend with whom I studied approached me to ask for help with a project I was about to film, we have to start from the 3rd semester of the career of cs.Audiovisuals we are asked to make a short film for film material.
We were in 4th grade and we already had the experience of last semester to know how to work fluently, My friend comes up to me having all the production armed, but all it took was someone with a camera to direct the short film, At that time I was recording mine for the same subject, but I still decided to support her as much as possible.
Whoever smiles at the camera is my friend, the person who got me involved in this whole mess.
The story is simple but I like it, we are usually given only 10 minutes of duration per short film, that makes us work with concrete ideas that go straight to the point so as not to lengthen the stories too much, That's why we don't create such complex stories.
The short film begins by narrating about a group of children who are sharing in a playground, where they end up meeting a girl who was alone playing with her dog And even though it was a casual encounter, it will be a day you'll never forget, It's been many years since they last saw each other, but by things of destiny the same group of friends are found reunited in the same place.
And there, just like back then, they meet again who is now a beautiful girl, not knowing it's the same girl they once knew when they were little, many things will happen throughout history, to show this group of friends the truth hidden behind this pretty face.
History behind history.
One of the reasons I agreed to help my friend, was the fact that I've always liked the idea of making a short film with children, movies like "La pandillita" or "Mi pequeño diablillo" have always enchanted me, so do not miss the opportunity to gain experience with children and really enjoy it as you have no idea.
In addition, the children who accompanied us worked very well, I couldn't really complain about anything that day, we all enjoyed it to the fullest, even we, the grown-ups, looked like other little ones, laughter is the best tool for working with children, if you know how to pamper them intelligently, they'll do whatever you ask with pleasure.
The recording with the adult actors also flowed smoothly, although I sincerely enjoyed the first part more, there are so many anecdotes that were left in my mind that a single post would not be enough to tell them, some like the fact that we had a car accident at night climbing the hill Morro, in the hell we suffer filming at night in a swimming pool, both the light and the mosquitoes made war on us, but we always come out winners and that is reflected in the result of all our effort, we managed to be one of the 5 best short films of our semester, which gave us a lot of joy, not just us, but also to all the people who collaborated to make our work possible, directly as well as indirectly.
I'm sorry I can't share the short film with you, the reason is simple and not many people know it, but a rule that is demanded of us as filmmakers both inside and outside the country, is that in order to enter a short film in any competition or film festival, it can not be published on social networks, for this reason we have never uploaded it to pages like youtube or facebook.
Thanks to everyone who's been supporting my work, day by day the Spanish-speaking community is growing by leaps and bounds, just like me there are many here who have great ideas and dreams to share with the rest of the world and here I found a big family where I could share those ideas and dreams.
