BEST IN CRAFT (DIRECTION)
SDPF3 ‘The Heist’
Patriot Films | Anton Visser

Awarded by Peter Little

Judge’s comment: ‘From the moment the letterboxing retreated revealing the cityscape, I was transfixed. While the meticulous craft and detail in every aspect of this piece was impeccable, it was the direction that fused all the elements together that made this piece truly special and why I feel this is the craft winner for November. When the craft is of such a high level, it becomes almost invisible, leaving one just totally immersed in the story. This piece truly honours the Bank Heist genre, with every shot, every character and every lighting set up so carefully considered, resulting in a blockbuster feel that could sit comfortably in a Christopher Nolan piece like Dark Knight Rises.‘ – Peter Little, Chief Creative Officer at Publicis Groupe Africa
