Signal Red, a member of FILM.UA Group, shot a teaser for a new project with the working title "History of assassinations". On the example of an assassination attempt on Theodore Roosevelt company's team plans to demonstrate the technology and visual solutions of the future project which will focus on the most important and significant assassinations in history.
Sets of "The Battle of Sevastopol" were used for the shooting, the video shows Roosevelt delivering his speech immediately after he was shot. Using a special three-dimensional scanning technology Signal Red's team digitized more than 15 actors in historical costumes, which were elements of digital assassination reconstruction.
We remind you the story of the assassination attempt on Theodore Roosevelt:
While Roosevelt was campaigning in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on October 14, 1912, a saloonkeeper named John Flammang Schrank shot him, but the bullet lodged in his chest only after penetrating his steel eyeglass case and passing through a thick (50 pages) single-folded copy of the speech he was carrying in his jacket. Roosevelt, as an experienced hunter and anatomist, correctly concluded that since he was not coughing blood, the bullet had not completely penetrated the chest wall to his lung, and he declined suggestions to go to the hospital immediately. Instead, he delivered his scheduled speech with blood seeping into his shirt. He spoke for 90 minutes.
Teaser was shot in English to find investors and partners for co-production in Western Europe or USA.
