Short Film: A Case Of Missing Identity 2019

A short film called A Case of Missing Identity based on a Sherlock Holmes mystery that premiered on the 14th of September at the NMN 2019 conference and was initially conceived as a short promotional video for the conference but eventually grew into a short film that only had a budget covering the actors costumes.
The most impressive fact about this shot film besides the virtually non existent budget was that it was put together in only two weeks from idea to pre-production. In tern some of the actors only had a week or less to learn all their lines and not even in their own native language. Some of the cast don’t even speak the language that was used in the film and tirelessly worked with the screenwriter and director to deliver their performance.
But one of the most impressive feats tackled was that the amateur crew of film makers and cast worked for two days back to back to shoot all the necessary footage with only a handful of basic equipment to use on multiple locations moving the production between locations and setting up there like a well oiled machine or a seasoned production crew. Not to mention all the efforts and assistance from the cast who even got their own hands dirty to help the filming crew get the shoots they needed to make the whole endeavor into a 20 minute short film.
But after all the lights and cameras were switched off the post-production crew worked for another two months assembling the footage and dealing with all the problems that happen during filming. From dealing with changing weather and lighting conditions or dawn light to battling with inevitable mistakes that may happen when capturing sound.
In the end when the whole film came together in final assembly as well as it could be a story that began with a simple idea put into a screenplay emerged even better than the producers imagined it in the beginning.

Documentary Film: The Birth Of Venus – A New Era

The Birth Of Venus is a short documentary film in which, we explore a stunning marble sculpture titled “A New Era,” created by sculptor Mik Simcic. The sculpture is a contemporary representation of Botticelli’s Venus, a symbol of spiritual voyagers, brought through half a century. This partly realistic sculpture of a young woman in natural size, with a polished surface, stands on her left foot, while her right foot appears to be in the midst of a movement, as if it wishes to step forward into a new, awakened world where ethics and aesthetics are valuable once again. Her intricately tangled hair wraps around her naked body, merging with a sea wave from which she is said to have emerged. “A New Era” signifies a new awakening and the beginning of a new era, anticipating and announcing the rise of a human being harboring higher values. Join us as we explore the beauty and symbolism of this incredible sculpture and its message for our world today.

This is our fort music video production called Say You’ll Be Mine for the band XSKULL8 and we couldn’t be more proud of it, not just because it was our first music video but also because the song itself gave us a really great starting point for creating the video in the first place. Also from everybody involved of the band performing in the video to our amazing crew who withstood freezing temperature for hours shooting scenes on the streets of Ljubljana.
A special thanks goes out Iza Kokoravec, Miha Hajdu, Borut Perme, Katarina Celarc, Miloš Krsmanović and of course everybody else that contributed to the making of this music video and we’re all looking forward to new challenges in the times to come.
