'Gaining Insight and Experience: My Week as a Runner on the Zoraide Film Set in Lucca, Italy' by Anfisa Semenova
This week FTV student Anfisa Semenova had a unique opportunity to work as a runner on the film set of Zoraide, a 9 Muse Films production. Read about her experiences below:
Shot in Lucca, Italy, being a runner on this film was an incredibly interesting and useful hands-on experience as I got an insight into the inner and outer workings of a professional film set, as well as learn about the production process and delve into it myself. Zoraide was a very special and important project to undertake because it is based on a true story that took place during the Second World War in the Tuscan hills of Compignano. The film aims to tell a harsh reality by exploring the ability of children to interpret the world with innocent eyes and with the curiosity of a pure heart. It was a pleasure to work alongside such a talented crew and contribute to the making of the film. As the post-production process begins, I can't wait to see the finished product with the premiere set for September 2024!
