SciFi Short - Moondays
Shot on location in NYC. Director’s Statement: My team and I crafted Moondays as a testament to how virtual production can empower indie filmmakers to tell visually ambitious stories that typically require blockbuster budgets. More than that, I wanted to use the sandbox of the tech to create something that I hadn’t really seen it be used for: an absurdist comedy. The result is what I describe as a very dark episode of Futurama. Something that’s dripping with all the aesthetic swag of a sharp sci-fi thriller, but bursting at the seams with classic slapstick gags and cartoonish characters. It’s such an unlikely pairing that the contrast itself becomes part of the joke. A sort of meta satire on the state of virtual production filmmaking today. Most modern sci-fi films take themselves really seriously, so I wanted to make sure that ours didn’t. Subscribe to Dust . Subscribe to Fuse Technical Group
