The Making of
Generations (2017)
Radicchio Film's humble beginnings--the first short film we made back in the day. We've come a long way since then but we still like to share what we were able to create even with minimal budget for lighting and production design.

Lighting for night/exteriors
A large reflector was used to bounce fill light onto subject Grace Chan Ng.
Crew members hold up their phones for extra fill light. #shittyrigs!
Gaffer Curtis Yap and grip QB Hoang bounced light from a moonlight-gelled fresnel into a white board to create the effect of far away moonlight.
A #shittyrigs dolly track, broke college student edition! PVC pipes were laid on the ground for a shot.
