Asunto Personal is a short film created by Rafael Carbayeda, better known as q256. Surely most of you who read this blog will also read Ion Litio, a blog that I have already recommended on more than one occasion, and that is Rafa’s blog, who is also the one who writes the best VidaExtra posts.
Rafa’s short, titled “Asunto Personal”, is filmed entirely indoors and only 3 actors appear in it, more than enough for an “amateur” short**, because as they say, “he who covers a lot, doesn’t squeeze much”, and if he had used more locations, more actors, more lighting, etc., possibly a short similar to [Italian] would have come out Spiderman](https://www.bolletin.es/blog/?p=547 “Italian Spiderman”) (no waste).
Without further ado, I leave you with the short:
To me, both the editing of the short and the use of cameras seemed correct. The use of lights and shadows makes it look like a semi-professional short, especially the moment in which the giant shadow of the interrogator is played with. As for the plot and the dialogues, I think a little more sense of humor would have been nice, although the theme limits it in that aspect, and at times the dialogues become quite uninteresting. Despite all this, I recommend watching it, as it shows that nowadays, anyone, with few resources, can turn their ideas into a film :).
PDTA: I forgot to mention that the music that Rafa uses in his short has a Copyleft License, something that many should take example from.
