Journal of the Black Atlantic
Journal of the Black Atlantic is a short film being produced in association with Zandrak Productions, and Emerson College's Warlord Productions. It is being shot on a Red Epic camera on location in Quincy, MA on an actual battleship, the USS Salem, that is from the same time period in which the movie will take place (1940s/50s). A combination of Emerson students, along with filmmakers and actors from the Boston area, will be collaborating to make this film a success. Since this is a period piece, and most of the film takes place in the flashback, we need to do extensive costume design work to make this film as realistic as possible. Not only do we need to recreate Marine uniforms, but we have to recreate Marine uniforms from the 1940s/50s. Materials for this can get quite expensive, so we need help raising that money. We also have the amazing opportunity to shoot aboard an actual battleship. However, this also comes at a price. With your help, we can make this film one of the most realistic and professional products to come out of Emerson College. Thank you! http://rkthb.co/6561
