Got a shoot date for Black and White - shooting at Aylesford Priory, Maidstone. It looks amazing! Unfortunately the Shrine area (top) is out of bounds for the moment but we'll try and work the magic as it looks pretty awesome...

Black and White

So in the mean time I've been getting busy planning Black and White. I want this film to play heavily on the contrast of the shades, but with artistic demeanor. Director Floria Sigismondi has been a huge influence, I really like Karen Elsons character in the video for the White Stripes' Blue Orchid and it's inspired me to cast some ballet dancers. Huge success when I found identical twins to play each role. Score! Here are the mood boards, still trying to finalize a location though...

Red

So for the launch, we're developing our portfolio to illustrate the versatility of what LouisLouisa can offer. We are currently producing a selection of short films, each based around a particular colour, inspired by the connotations it shares. Red being first into the editing suite, is proving an interesting one. The colour red perhaps evokes some of the rawest human emotions - from love, passion, seduction - to danger, anger and evil. There were many starting points for this. We decided to capture the thoughts of others and what the colour red meant to them, so we set up a booth at Richmond School of Dramatic Art and got the students to participate.

The Birth

Ok, so LouisLouisa Productions is officially on it's feet! We're currently working on a selection of short films to illustrate what it is we can offer to our clients, so watch this space! New reels will be up over the next couple of weeks, so let us know what you think!
