Positions

Guillotine
Los Angeles, Estados Unidos
March 2021 - Present (3 anos 1 mês)
Feature film called GUILLOTINE, directed by Ray Izad-Mehr and produced by Sara Vahabi. We shoot the entire film in Los Angeles, it’s been a great challenge because the feature has 5 chapters with 5 different timelines reviving France, Germany, Algeria and Iraq. The film tells the story of the Guillotine through several true stories ranging from the French Revolution in 1792 to the murders carried out by Saddam Hussein’s son’s in Iraq 2003. The film was shot on Alexa Mini (Open Gate) and BKMC 6K with a combination of anamorphic and spherical optics, which changes the aspect ratio of the film, using 4:3 for the German Nazi chapter, 2.39:1 anamorphic and 1.85:1 spherical lenses filmed in studio and different outdoor locations such as castles around Los Angeles. I feel incredibly proud of the cinematographic work achieved in this film, since there are specific timelines in the film where electricity did not exist and we shot it with many colors and types of lighting like sodium and vapor lights.
