Behind The Scenes on BLACK (Photos Part1)

I’ve just uploaded my first batch of photos from behind the scenes of SAW Films first short film production BLACK.

The group was set up late last year by local film makers Kevin Hughes, Pat Kenny and Damien Donnelly; to establish a network of local film makers with a view to enhancing film production in the South East.

They used the ArtLinks forum to organise weekly meetings and assembled a crew varying from first-timers to industry professionals, to work on two short film productions (BLACK and Bitche’s Coven) shot on a RED camera.

BLACK was my second opportunity to work as a Data Downloader with a RED and despite the technical nightmare it turned into and the fact that the crew spent a long cold day shooting in a muddy graveyard in the grounds of Shankill Castle in early December, it was a lot of fun.

The films are currently in post-production, I’m hoping to get a look at the early cuts soon and I’ll talk more about the shoot in the next few weeks.

For now check out the first batch of photos from behind the scenes on BLACK here on the homepage with links to the rest on Flickr. Plenty more photos coming soon.
