| Production Title: Be Water My Friend Company: Crew of Two Line Manager: Eddie Mcmillan Programme Length: Under 30 minutes Genre: Arts & Music Sector: Short Film Description :
"Bew Water My Friend" was my 3rd year Student film. The film was based around Bruce Lee's Taoist philosophy. The film has an experimental approach allowing for a more creative freedom with the cinematography and editing aspects of production, and foregoing the constraints of visual and narrative continuity. Exploring various Avant-Garde and experimental film styles was beneficial for garnering ideas for the compositional and editing stylistic strategies for the film’s tone and form, which would ultimately bind the visual elements and express the themes within the film. This film was made with only two crew members, taking multiple production roles.
My roles on this production were
-Producer- Responsible for production health and safety, Scheduling, Location sourcing and booking, Equipment booking and Transportation
-Director- Responsible for Storyboards, Shot lists, Directing atlent and Editing.
-Camera operator/ Cinematographer- Responsible for Camera operation/setup, Lighting, Props and Artistic direction.
