OVERVIEW: A family holiday shown the way it actually happens. Kids everywhere, wet towels, shared food, noise, interruptions and the bits nobody plans.
Shot in New Zealand with the camera close to the action, letting performance, handheld movement and sound carry the humour. The more imperfect the moment, the better it worked.
It feels like it is happening around you rather than arranged for you.
Directed for Spry Films.
CRAFT: Camera-inside-the-chaos filmmaking, using loose performance, handheld movement and layered sound to turn the mess of a family holiday into the story.
