FEVER - Short Film
Written & Directed by: @rwmcarter
Last year, I had the privilege of shooting a period-piece horror film with my good friend Carter. This was our second collaboration, and easily one of the most fun set experiences I’ve ever had.
Our team spent a weekend up in Boone, NC and absolutely killed it. While the shoot was mostly smooth, I was definitely pushed technically.
One of the most intimidating challenges in cinematography for me is lighting large night exteriors. For the campfire scene, we couldn’t rely solely on firelight—we needed to extend moonlight far enough to reveal something in the distance. Using an HMI, a 12x ultrabounce, and some last-minute problem solving, I ended up really happy with the result.
So proud of this project. Huge thanks to everyone who contributed. FEVER is available now on Carter’s YouTube channel.
