Short film review: 'Wednesday' - Rob Sorrenti

Image
'Wednesday' Written and directed by; Rob Sorrenti Produced by Oscar-nominated film director Stephen Daldry and supported by Working Title Films Screened at 50 Film Festivals around the world Won several awards and has signed by Shorts International - the world’s largest short film distributor   The success of 'Wednesday' earned Sorrenti a nomination for Channel 4's Young Talent Award for best director. This short film is about a young man and woman who were born on the same day, at the same time, at the same hospital, and end up crossing paths again unknowingly at the same place. For me, without even watching the film I was instantly drawn to idea of it. I begun to think about all the possibilities that could happen within it so I went ahead watching with a positive outlook and it did not disappoint me one bit.  I found this film such a delight to watch, it was light hearted yet carried quite serious themes but the way in which it was w...

Directions: Drama: Production Day, Feedback and Evaluation

Production days before rough cut hand in This day was a very interesting day for me as I learnt so much about myself, others and how to deal with certain situations.  Actors First of all I felt really unprepared and nervous about the SFX and my actors. Just knowing that everyone was relying on me was so scary. I was delayed with the make up and it was a very windy, cold day. My actor was getting stroppy when I kept asking to do more takes from different angles and it was quite stressful. Because I knew the actor was cold, I tried my best to accommodate him and I also ended up restricting the amount of shots I re did because I didn't want everyone to be out in the cold too long. That was my biggest mistake. I should not have put the actor's feelings in front of the task at hand as much as I did because I ended up limiting my coverage which is never a good thing. When it came to edit I realised that there were shots that I forgot to film, even though I had the shot list at h...
