SHORT FILM

Client:

Intsomi

Brief: 

To create a fictional short film (2:30 - 3:00 mins) with a relevant narrative as well as a narrative that addresses current social issues.

Insight:

Young black women who are creatives find the pressures of having to constantly be productive without being true to their identities to be stifling. They feel that the work they produce is not authentic because they cannot include their own identities in the work that they do. 

Solution:

We created a short film that highlights how the subtle non-work related moments of a young black woman's life actually inform the authenticity of her work.

Learnings:

We learnt the importance of formulating production schedules and sticking to them. We also learnt the many ways in which a narrative can be pushed through a film.
