About

Lo Gran Mazel is a graduation short film realised by 5 students of ArtFx school, in Montpellier, France.

Our goal was to live an ambitious filming experiment for a student film, and to merge various filming sources, live, greenscreen, stockshots, and, later, to focus on compositing.
The main challenge was to create two armies, with only 6-8 actors while we were filming.

We’ve made the post-production in 4 months.
Filming was made in several times, with HDSLR. Two days to film all the battle scenes, one day for the scenes in the city, one day for the fighting and cycling in front of greenscreen, and around one day, dispatch in a few sessions, for the differents stockshots.
