GRIM ALL DAY | 2 perf 200T & 500T 35mm “When we first started talking about the visual language for Grim, we spoke a lot about finding a a way to represent a certain darkness in the project. We came to this term ‘ugly-beautiful’ our goal was to create images which had a sort of uncanny appeal to them, relying on shadow, muddy colors; burgundy, brown, green, etc - creating a sort of irresistible tone that was simultaneously off putting.” Director Dylan Pailes-Friedman @dylan_p.f “We tried out a new format that I’ve never seen anyone use before. I had some leftover short ends from the feature I shot earlier that year. We didn’t have a ton, but we both felt like 1.33 was the right aspect ratio for the story. So, we ended up shooting in 2 perf and cropping it to 1.33. It sounds a bit crazy, but it made sense given the free stock we had. We both loved the texture we ended up with — an in-between 16mm and 35mm. It also gave us a significantly larger film plane than 16mm would have. It really aligned well with the visual world we wanted to create for this film.” DP Mika Altskan @mikaaltskan Written & Directed by: @dylan_p.f DP: @mikaaltskan With: @talliemedel @maschamareen @tobias.segal Produced by: @jppw11 @noah.dirks EP: @athln @dakotaminafox Colorist: @dantegiani Color House: @ethos_studio Sound Design and Mix: @_inesadriana_ Casting: @kategellercasting 1st AD: @k____e____m Costume Designer: @Hillaryesthersproul 1st AC: @SinclairNeff @omni_cloud 2nd AC: @KatieMlinek Loader: @hella_messed Gaffer: Clem Therin Production Design: @_doros Art Director: @willyrich Set Dresser: @tofutti69cutie Art Assistant: @he.harrison Production Sound Mixer: @djlilnipslip Wardrobe Assistants: @Rebeccaturbow @traviisimo Key Grip: Farley Schilling @gabesolo13 Specialty Grip: Theolonius Frumkin Grip Swing: Hunter Zimny Charles Jarry @gusselsprout @theo_.matza Hair and Makeup: @sweetbbjane Locations: @jojorabbi Production Assistants: Grace Hague @amysgeiger Intimacy Coordinator: @anniening VFX Supervisor: Vadim Konov VFX: Cinnamon VFX CCO: Connor McNamara Distribution: @gargantua_distribution Processing: Kodak Film Labs: NYC Scans: @metpostny #ShotOnFilm #16mm
