Cinematography Choice of the Week: “The 3rd Letter”

Andrew Duncan, Audrey Riley, Bastiaan Koch, Canon, Canon 5D, DSLR, Grzegorz Jonkajty, HDSLR, Marauder Film, Rodrigo Lopresti, The 3rd Letter, Visual Effects

Director Grzegorz Jonkajty, marries stunning visuals, intense visual effects and a simple story line in this beautiful short. “The 3rd Letter.” This is truly a film to look at if you may be loosing faith in the HDSLR’s. Shot on the Canon 5D MKII, the film does not disappoint visually. Grzegorz, puts an interesting spin on the perception of the future. Where most may think the future is bright, clean, and worry free, Grzegorz, shows what I believe may be a more realistic portrayal of what is to come. Dark, gritty, and worn out, the visuals of the film really thrust you into this hopeless mood of survival. Take a look a share your thoughts.
