Vienna, 22 June, 2010:
ADDITION 27th July 2010 - Now looking for CREW. Click here for details.
FFAB is to commence production of its short film UNSEEN in August 2010 in Vienna.
An 8-minute comedy about a woman with a guardian angel, FFAB has been awarded funds from Wien Kultur to make the film which will be a 4-day shoot in and around Austria’s capital.
The film will be shot on a RED camera at full 4K cinematic resolution and will be entered into a number of A-list film festivals internationally.
FFAB are currently looking for cast and crew for the project and anyone interested should contact Phil Moran on info@ffab.co.uk
UNSEEN
It’s great having a guardian angel ... unless yours happens to be a psychopath.
A woman with a shoe fetish catches her husband playing away from home. She's in two minds about what to do - so one mind takes the initiative and murders the husband's bit on the side.
When he is arrested, she finds herself free to pursue a young lover of her own. What better way to snag a toy boy than having the competition bumped off! All it takes is a quick snap of the victim on her phone and her guardian unangel does the rest.
Mass murder never goes to plan, however, and her obsession for stilettos diverts her to something a little more unsavoury.
***
Unseen is a black comedy of 8 minutes in length. It's very filmic, full of atmosphere and very little dialogue. We have funding from Wien Kultur who were very keen to support the project after reading the script. We'll be shooting at full cinema film resolution with a RED camera and professional lenses.
We're looking for people to support us in this venture. It will be a lot of work for little or no pay, but it will be a lot of fun. Everyone will be well fed, receive a copy of the film and a share of revenue in terms of sales and prize money. There will be 4 shooting days in and around Vienna.
The main reason to get involved will be to have Unseen as part of your showreel, as it will be a very polished piece of filming that will no doubt win a number of awards at a variety of international film festivals.
For crew, we are now looking for an art director and a project manager.
We are also looking for actors who can show a great deal of subtlety - showing a great deal of emotion through facial expressions and a minimal amount of bodily motion.
