The film is directed by Gustavo Hernandez, photographed by Pedro Luque and produced by Gustavo Rojo, at an amazingly low budget which amounts to U$ 6000. “The silent house” digs deeply into the unexplored subject of psychological terror, and it runs through a terrifying story through a single continuous shot. It was filmed with a SLR digital, to be more precise, a Canon EOS 5D Mark.
To be filmed in one single shot implies that the sequence is filmed in one go, without cuts, and the camera movements need a prior careful and meticulous planning which leads the viewer to share each one of the experiences of the character. "It was four days of intense work, based on a carefully planned project, shot to shot, scene by scene.", the producer Gustavo Rojo also said that La Casa Muda is the first Latin American film to be shot entirely with a professional photo camera that also happened to be filmed in one single 72-minute sequence shot. The photography looks quite crisp for night shooting.
Gustavo Rojo also stated online lately…"A few days after the Spanish Teaser Trailer was released, executives from some of the most important production company of Hollywood have shown interest in seeing it once it is finished and acquire the rights. The film is still at audio post production, and is expected to be finished in March. "The silent house" teaser trailer with English subtitles has come. Perhaps we may see the remake soon!!!
La Casa Muda's premiere is scheduled for March, 2010, after which it'll hit the festival circuit.
