As this year's recession has limited the number of independent films in production, Schizo Cool will enter a less competitive market and stand a greater chance of attracting distributors and audiences.
Our core creative team has dynamic connections to the Chicago film community and many of its leading institutions that enable us to discover emerging talent, cultivate audiences and establish legitimacy in Chicago, across the nation and abroad.
The filmmakers will:
-
pioneer a new production process that appropriates cubist visual strategies into a multi-layered split-screen to represent how one might see with extra eyeballs.
-
leverage novel techniques from the experimental music scene to turn production audio into music, and heighten emotional intensity with new sounds and noise modifications.
-
shoot on the nimble Sony EX-1 camera to achieve image quality equal to super-16mm film at a fraction of the cost, risk, and hassle.
-
engage hot media topics including health care, marketing ethics and green living.
