My name is Kalle Saarinen and I am a 21 year old independent filmmaker figuring out how to make movies. I have always loved the feeling of escapism and getting lost in the world of film. After watching, collecting and analyzing films for years I finally figured out what I want to do.
Films.
I want to create the most captivating works of escapism for people to enjoy. Films have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember and the only possible extension to my passion was to actually start creating them, and it has been everything I would have hoped for.
This short will turn into the best and most acclaimed short film I have done so far. I will reveal my view of life in a very personal and intimate view, straight from my own thoughts and experiences. This film tells the tale of what cinema and filmmaking means to me, and how I got into it.
Perspective was made with a budget of only 50 euros. We used an iPhone, a 2013 outlet cheap Sony camera and a Canon Super 8 -camera. We managed to create a film as meaningful and powerful as this with basically no money and filmmaking equipment at all, just passion and creativity. I hope it really draws you in and proves my abilities as a filmmaker, because this is only a little taste of what I got in my pocket!
