Grizzly Bears on a Budget: How To Previs Your Indie

Description:

Cinecode has helped empower indie film, Grizzly Night. A film based on the 1967 deadly grizzly bear attacks that changed national park service forever. Prior to production they knew they would film with a real bear on set. Through previs we helped their production plan how they would shoot & take proper safety precautions with the bear & actors, as well as help establish vfx, cinematography, lighting, & coloring techniques that significantly reduced the cost.
