JUDE’S FILM IS A DOCUDRAMA ABOUT AN ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. JUDE’S SUICIDE ATTEMPT WAS THE CATALYST IN THE RESURRECTION OF A NEW MAN.
THIS ENTIRE CREATIVE FILM PROJECT WAS ACOMPLISHED WITH NO BUDGET, TWO OLD CONSUMER FIXED-LENS CAMERAS AND ONE CHEAP CHINESE “GO PRO” KNOCK-OFF. ALL THE NONE UNION ACTORS WERE VOLUNTEERS, AND THE SCHEDULING WAS A COLOSSAL NIGHTMARE. PULLING IT OFF WAS A MAJOR UNDERTAKING AND TOOK A MONUMENTAL EFFORT AND CREATIVE JUGGLING. THE WRITING, LIGHTING, ART DIRECTION, CINEMATOGRAPHY, VISUAL EFFECTS AND EDITING WERE DONE BY ME ALONE.
I CREATED, WROTE THE SCRIPT, AND SHOT AND EDITED ALL THE FOOTAGE EXCEPT THE AERIAL SHOTS FROM “QUADROTOR DRAGONFLY” WITH THEIR PERMISSION OF COURSE. ALL THE MUSIC WAS ACQUIRED AND PURCHASED WITH LICENCES FROM POND5.COM AND FESLIYANSTUDIOS.COM
