The Bad Beat

Chosen Specialisation: Director

From the Film Maker...

In this film it is the actual lead up to the event and the pose of the people at the table that I wanted to recreate.

I wanted to represent an occurrence which would make people sitting at the table strike the same pose as that in the painting; to show the build up of a surprising moment, using low lighting to evoke the darkness of the paintings.
