‘Survive In Silence’ A short film by some Bond University film students. By Chloe Alford
In the early weeks of January, a handful of Bond Film and Television students were offered the opportunity to film a short film at the Screen QLD Studios. For those of you who are unaware, the studios in Brisbane are the third largest film studios in Australia. The studio we filmed in is 3,000 square meters, and was used for productions such as ‘J oe vs Carole’ (2022), ‘Love and Monsters’ (2020) and ‘Aquaman’ (2018). So for our cast and crew, filming in these studios was definitely a pinch me moment. Our cast and crew consisted of 14 members, and we filmed our short film in the studios over two days. Due to the current covid climate at the time, some of the crew members were unable to attend the shoot, but their efforts were key during the film’s pre-production process. As one of the Producers on this project, I am incredibly proud of the cast and crew for their efficient efforts throughout the film’s creation and development stages. With Uma, the other Producer, and I only having two weeks to organise the shoot, we couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to help bring a vision to life. We want to say a special thanks To Darren Fisher, Derek Hall and the Screen Queensland Studios, for providing this wonderful opportunity and supporting our cast and crew throughout the pre-production and production process.
