COLLISION COURSE
Theatre Trailer
Dir: Anthony R. Smith
Prod: Craig Baxter
A strange inclusion perhaps. I love the look of this piece, however short and would love to do more work like this.
We combined our kit prep for a TV commercial with shooting this little short for our friends. How often do you get KOWA anamorphics and ALEXA minis to shoot a theatre trailer.
We had no extra money so we had to get creative. With a bare worker light as our motivation and a couple of Gemini 4x1s we used one of the actors e-cigs to get the ambient smoke effect right before each shot and manually flickered the Gemini to get our lightning effect.
