Challenge

Bring concepts to life in this experimental short film through the use of visual effects

Outcome

Multiple shots delivered to the director’s vision, all within the condensed budget of an indie film.

This short film has been officially selected for the London Fashion Film Festival, Oxford Shorts 2023 and the Croatia Fashion Film Festival.

The Waterwall

The script called for an ethereal watery divide between the main character and the alien beings. This presented the biggest visual effects challenge on this production because it would be seen across multiple shots in a sequence, in wide and close up.

Fluid simulations were out of the question, they are simply too resource intensive for a small production, and there wasn’t much time in the schedule to develop the look.

In the end, the waterwall was achieved with procedural effects creating distortion and glare which could then be easily implemented and adjusted on a shot by shot basis.
