These filmmakers made an award-winning monster short doing everything from lighting, sound, editing, and special effects—all on a BMPCC.
David Kotkin and Glenn Cutler are the filmmakers behind the horror short film Rachel, which tells the story of a grief-stricken alcoholic who is befriended by a little girl. When tragedy occurs, he must choose between his addiction and hunting a man-eating bull shark.
The movie is symbolic of the internal struggle to stop a self-destructive habit. The shark represents addiction and Rachel represents the best part of our inner self. Kotkin and Cutler had no formal filmmaking education before making the movie.
We spoke with the duo about shooting a film with a shark using the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera. You can watch their short below!
