Method Helps Director Phillip Van Create Melancholy Journey in Short Film ProjectMethod, recently completed 3D animation and effects work on "And She Stares Longingly At What She Has Lost," a distributive short film offering directed by Phillip Van as part of the "Exquisite Corpse" project launched by Little Minx partnered with RSA Films.
Drawing its inspiration from the parlor game of the same name, "Exquisite Corpse" comprises five short films by Van and directors Chris Nelson, Malik Hassan Sayeed, Josh Miller, and Laurent Briet.
Through the progression of films, each director responds to the last line of text of the previous director's script and gives their concept of what it means to be a minx.
"This was a challenging project for us," admits Sabrina Elizondo, Visual Effects Producer at Method.
"It was also completely irresistible because the creative leeway we were offered was a unique experience.
Just about every live action scene was shot on bluescreen, so defining the look was technically up to our team.
The opportunity also lent itself to a close working-relationship with the director, Phil, and that collaborative effort really made a big difference."
Van's film is a compelling and ultimately heart-wrenching depiction of the loss of childhood innocence.
