I worked on this presentation for my Short Film
Set design for Fiorella’s fashion film
Yesterday I helped design sets for Fiorella’s fashion film. Joy and I worked together to achieve the closest result to the imagery that was referred to us by Fiorella. It was an amazing experience working with my friends from class. We sourced the props from National Theatre. I have never worked on – physically putting a set together. But working on this shoot has helped me understand a lot of things about the placement, renting and sourcing props, figuring out the angles and the importance of lighting while shooting a video. Fiorella organised everything very well and the experience was as good as one would get while working on a commercial project. Here are a few images of the sets that we helped her for:
Indian diaspora in the West
What should I wear? Should I wear Indian clothes? Would I be judged? When I’m walking on the streets in London, i smile at people and they smile back. But when I smile at Indian women they don’t smile back Why is that? Should I try speaking in an accent? How do I react when people call India food – too spicy or fatty?
