DVFX | Cisma: Criolo “Duas de Cinco”

If Spike Jonze’s vision of the future in Her was too sunny for you, try on Denis Cisma’s decidedly bleaker take in this short film inspired by Criolo’s latest album, “Duas de Cinco.”

Set in the south side of São Paulo, where Criolo grew up, the short involves 3D printed weapons, futuristic drugs and the inescapable dangers of poverty. The film seems to agree with the old adage: the more things change, the more things stay the same.

From the beginning, the director imagined a record of the São Paulo neighborhood in the near future, in 30 years, in the year 2044. Reminiscent of a super film production, however, this was a very ambitious idea to accomplish without great financial resources, since Creole is an independent artist, but that proved to be possible with the support of the community and Grajaú production team . Nearly all the supporting cast is made up of friends of the singer and neighborhood residents, most 'actors' first trip. The main cast is formed by young Daniel Dantas, Morgana and Leo LOA, students invited to the film with the help of the teacher's core theater of Heaven Jacana James Ortaet.Daniel Dantas, main character, student Ortaet since age 5, said to have had no trouble finding her character, having already staged similar roles in the theater. "To realize this project, we have the involvement of leading professionals with whom I had worked in advertising. This contributed greatly to get a good result because, even if there was a roadmap to follow, I left all free to bring their own ideas of the future and that's what happened, "says Schism, whose main inspiration for the film was the long District 9, Neil Blomkamp. "We print futuristic elements and at the same time show that the cycle in which we live is not stopped, the future, which is already showing, you do not wonder what everyone imagines," says the director. 's script, signed by Schism itself, tells the story of three young men who kill class to commit crimes. The year was 2044, but the socio-economic reality of Brazil has changed little. Advances in technology, however, enable easy availability of various gadgets, drones and 3D printers, even in disadvantaged neighborhoods. Of purposely pessimistic character, the music video also serves as a warning for the future that awaits us.Postproduction movie was in charge of Clan VFX. The futuristic reproduction of technological equipment such as mobile phones, computers and 3D printers took three months to complete. The Paranoid sign production.
