Have you ever wanted to see the behind-the-scenes on a film shot entirely with an iPhone by one of the world’s finest directors? Quiet Earth (via Bleeding Cool) has uncovered the first teaser and behind-the-scenes from Park Chan-wook‘s Paranmanjang (translated to Night Fishing).
We reported on the $133,000 budget 30-minute feature and now you can see it in motion. The teaser is neat, but I found the behind-the-scenes much more interesting with the different lenses used on the iPhone, jib shots, dollies, and more. I’ve never seen such preparation and thought put into such a production on this format. See both the teaser and behind-the-scenes below.
Synopsis: A fantastical tale that begins with a middle-aged man fishing one afternoon and then, hours later at night, catches the body of a woman. The panicked man tries to undo the intertwined fishing line, but he gets more and more entangled. He faints, then wakes up to find himself in the white clothes that the woman was wearing. The movie’s point of view then shifts to the woman and it becomes a tale of life and death from a traditional Korean point of view.
What do you think of this format for shooting a film?
