THE MAKING OF THE RUSSIAN AT CHRISTMAS

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

<p>This thesis will explain the process of making my feature film, <em>The Russian at Christmas</em>, which I wrote, directed, and edited myself. I will discuss my influences for the film, and how those influences led to my own visual and writing style. By walking through the stages of pre-production, production, and post- production, I will discuss the film from conception to completion. My time in the SFA film program – including working on four other summer features – prepared me to direct my own feature film. Completing this feature film was a daunting task that has no comparison to directing short films.</p>
