Between War and TikTok (Short Documentary)
Budget: £2 – £60 GBP
The project is a short documentary that will cover the war in Ukraine, through the eyes of a TikTok influencer in London. The project aims to shed some light on one of the world's bloodiest wars in modern history and raise more awareness on the conflict as a whole. The film will explore the sorrow in the life of a Ukrainian refugee, who fled her country to find peace and a better place. It will also look at the decision she (the interviewee) decided to take, by taking advantage of her hundreds and thousands of followers on social media to educate them on the Ukraine war.
Your role as a cinematographer, will not only get you involved in shooting the actual project but you might also give advice on the different types of shots that we can take, we will discuss the tune of the film and how we can create the best look through the relevant lighting, framing, and camera movement.
The project is expected to be screened at several film festivals across the United Kingdom and will enter a competition held by Al Jazeera, a news agency in Qatar. The duration of the film must not exceed 7 minutes, due to restrictions applied by some film festivals.
The filming process shouldn’t take more than 2 hours, including filming some B-Roll footage. If we go further than 2 hours, extras will be paid to you.
