Snowblind - Behind The Scenes
SNOWBLIND is a fun grindhouse future spaghetti western movie! SNOWBLIND is a dream come true for every B-Movie enthusiast: An apocalyptic world provides the scenery for a story lifted straight from a spaghetti western – Coming fully equipped with that genres typical toughguys and lots of hard-hitting one liners. In Snowblind, the atmosphere of a grindhouse flick meets the visual slickness of a modern-day graphic novel. SNOWBLIND was shot entirely against green screen – using the so-called "backlot" technique. Only through that method it is possible to bring our stories' epic landscapes needs to the big screen on a low budget. In the impressive visualisation, realistic environmental factors such as snow, ice and fog will clash with stylising elements like backlit silhouettes, slow motion effects and graphical elements straight from the pages of manga books. Maintaining typical features of the western genre at the same time creates a unique kind of visual irony, thus compensating the budgetary constraints with a lot of freshness and charme.
