Twisted:
Conceived as a short film with a very limited budget; we focused on the artistic elements for storytelling to bring you Twisted, the story of a mysterious men who is tormented by a secret behind a door at the end of the hall and a song that keeps playing everywhere. The song was sang by a woman named Diva who disappeared the day she recorded it for the first a last time.
The project has evolved through time with the input of new artists and is currently in development.

About

Film, a succession of still images that give us the illusion of movement. One of our most ambitions projects because it requires the contribution of a great number of participants. Photography, writing, acting, make up, clothing design, interior design, sound (sound capturing, sound track, music, sound editing), etc. are art forms on their own, but they are all required for this project.

The Story
This is the story of making a movie about a story, or better said “about several stories”. TWISTED begun when film students requested some assistance in the production of a short film for school purposes. The plot of the story was provided by writer Walter Moore, but the ending was left opened and we sock the contribution of a number of writers to choose their own ending. Eventually one story became eight stories and we decided to produce them all.
The Storyboards
A storyboard is a graphic organizer in the form of illustrations orimages displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing amotion picture, animation, motion graphic or interactive mediasequence. The storyboarding process, in the form it is known today, was developed at Walt Disney Productions during the early 1930s, after several years of similar processes being in use at Walt Disney and otheranimation studios.

We built teams of artist and students from Dawson Collage, O’Sullivan and other institutions to do an internship in preproduction and production for the project “Twisted”.

Professors and students from Santa Fe University of Art and Design http://www.santafeuniversity.edu/ explain exactly what it takes to make a short film. Hear about the pre-production (coming up with an idea, writing a screenplay, creating storyboards, scouting locations, raising money, and recruiting a crew), filming, and post production processes. Watch examples of student's short films at the end of this video.
One of our most exiting and ambitious ventures has been to pre-produce and produce short films. The journey required a great amount of effort, time, equipment, know how, software, PR, and Human Resource
This is for those interested in becoming a filmmaker and those who want to be part of the dream.

Filmmaker and Entrepreneur, Phillip Benoit, have served as one of our most valuable consultants through the journey. He provided insight on what regards filmmaking in Canada and links to the organizations that can help finance film production.

Drones

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a drone, as an unmanned aircraft system(UAS), and also referred by several other names, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. The flight of UAVs may be controlled with various kinds of autonomy : either by a given degree of remote control from an operator, located on the ground or in another vehicle, or fully autonomously, by onboard computers.
Historically, UAVs were simple remotely piloted aircraft, but autonomous control is increasingly being employed : UAV stands nowadays at the crossroads of aviation, electromagnetics, radiocommunication, computer science, avionics, automation, cybernetics, and even core fields of artificial intelligence such ascomputer vision, decision-making, machine learning and robotics.

Chroma key compositing, or chroma keying, is a special effects / post-production technique forcompositing (layering) two images or video streams together based on color hues (chroma range). The technique has been used heavily in many fields to remove a background from the subject of a photo or video – particularly the newscasting, motion picture and videogame industries. A color range in the top layer is made transparent, revealing another image behind. The chroma keying technique is commonly used in video production and post-production. This technique is also referred to as color keying, colour-separation overlay (CSO; primarily by the BBC[2]), or by various terms for specific color-related variants such as green screen, and blue screen – chroma keying can be done with backgrounds of any color that are uniform and distinct, but green and blue backgrounds are more commonly used because they differ most distinctly in hue from most human skin colors. No part of the subject being filmed or photographed may duplicate a color used in the background
Green Screen




In life you must be the writer and the main character of your own story, God knows that is not you the director.
This is the story of the stories; the stories that happens within the confinement of the wall inside that box where you made a home; the stories that are told behind doors, within the four walls of a therapist office.
Five people and their stories are five different movies, the only thing they have in common was that they shared the same therapist until she disappeared.

Software
Avid Media Composer (or simply Avid) is a film and video editing software application. This non-linear editing system (NLE) is the flagship product of Avid Technology. It was released in 1989 on the Macintosh II as an offline editing system. Since that time, the application features have increased to allow for film editing, uncompressed standard definition (SD) video and high definition (HD) editing and finishing. Since the early 1990s, Media Composer has been the dominant non-linear editing system in the film and television industry, first on Mac and then also on Windows. The Avid Newscutter, aimed at newsrooms, Avid Symphony, aimed at finishing, are all Avid products that were derived from Media Composer and share similar interfacing, as were Avid Xpress Pro (discontinued in 2008) and its predecessor Avid Xpress DV, which were aimed at the lower end of the market.

The Soundtrack
After years of pre-production, the music by Kookoo House by Mangarok in Sweden was the best fit for the soundtrack of Twisted to the point that a new short film version is named Kookoo.
