101 Secrets Indie Film

Posted by Mr. Robot | May 13th, 2015 | No responses

I often work with creative individuals who have their own projects in the works. Indie filmmaker Aaron Cho, is one of those creative mindsets with a pretty unusual taste. Cho had been working on his film 101 Secrets for a long while, before we started a collaboration on designing his promotional poster for a few film festivals. At the time I had not seen much footage of the film, but I managed to visit his sets and when he was on location directing a few of his shots. A variety of interesting characters were around during production, and I could already tell by the tone of the staff, that this was going to be an interesting movie.

So at this point, I knew there were some colorful characters to be featured. One of them was a panda, and so we decided to move forward with the idea of this panda being a focal point in the poster. Cho also stars in his film as Captain Kitty. It’s been a long while, I mean at least 5 years since I shot these photos, and at this point I managed to see a working print of the movie. It is an artsy movie with local talent, interesting sets, moderate pacing, and a story line that you would expect from Cho.

You’ll just have to see the movie for yourself. It has a good bit of everything you can expect from an artsy film. Certain things that you will love, and other things that you may hate. Seeing the effort that went into it, I am sure Aaron has dropped pints of blood, sweat, and tears to finally push through a full feature. This is not Aaron’s first rodeo though, and he has made other films in the past. It was only natural for him to feel comfortable in front of the camera, and this particular shoot did not drag on. The results are pretty good all things considered. During this time, I did not have professionally lighting, and the camera I used was subpar at best. We pulled through, and it was enough to get the buzz started with the posters. Be sure to be on the look out for this movie 101 Secrets.
