Exclusive: New VFX Stills For THE BURNING KISS
The Burning Kiss, a new Australian feature film, is nearing completion.
The film has drawn inspirations from southern gothic psychodrama, poolside
chic, pop art and the French New Wave.
A set of VFX stills has been made available exclusively to ScreenAnarchy.
Director Robbie Studsor, a firm believer that VFX should serve a film and not
the other way around, talks about his film and the use of VFX:
"Firstly, the film is obviously a little more Ken Russell than Ken
Loach, so I wanted to push the VFX in a way that's quite lurid and fun. This
requires talent, bravery and insanity on the part of our head VFX artist and he
has totally over delivered! I couldn't be happier.
It's a cliché but it's true, the VFX must contribute to the storytelling and themes of a film or else they lose all their power. These VFX are a very important dimension to the movie in both spirit and style and will make for some really fun moments.
I certainly love science fiction and genre visual effects, but I also love it when dramatic films use VFX and practical effects in atypical ways. Things like the DMT hallucination in Enter the Void or the atomic explosion at the end of Insignificance are incredible sensory experiences. Hopefully The Burning Kiss contributes to this tradition!"
