Film Courage: I’ve heard you mention composition many times. Do you even just go to Ralphs [a Los Angeles grocery chain] and say Okay this aisle I’m framing it here. I would do this over here?
R.L. Scott, Filmmaker: Absolutely. Yes. This was always a really big thing for me. I would notice the way things were framed and what I deemed cinematic. I always felt that was one of the weapons of a person who is an independent filmmaker or a content creator versus money. I always felt like that was one of those tools that could help make your project better:
*The way it’s lit;
*The way it sounds;
*The way that you compose your shots.
The term ‘cinematic,’ How cinematic can you be?…(Watch the video interview on Youtube here).

Solicitude – A crisp, cinematic 96-second short film on mental health (depression, loneliness, suicide) and what each one of us could do to CHANGE it. In times of quarantine and remote work, mental health has become essential. Writer/actor Uday Krishna’s Solicitude spotlights mental health, depression, and suicide with a positive ending on how all of us can improve within our own network. Uday along with Christina Perez (the director, editor, background score) and Emmanuel Vega (DOP, Lights) shot this short in three hours using one location.
