Stepping into the World of Filmmaking: Filmmaking Singapore

Filmmaking is a creative and technical process that involves conceptualizing, writing, directing, and editing elements that get into the movie. It includes pre-production, production, and post-production. At Undercutfilmz, we direct and oversee each stage.

Types of Filmmaking

Narrative Films

It is narration created with well-crafted characters and a solid plot. It requires a scriptwriter to write dialogues and depict scenes to bring the story to life. The inspiration is from various sources such as literature, drama, or personal creativity.

We have expertise in creating low-budget shorts to produce films with the finest storytelling structure.

Documentary Films

They are non-fiction films that document real events and people. It can be educational, journalistic, or entertainment. It shares factual details about real-life occurrences, locations, conflicts, or individuals.

You need to incorporate authentic footage, interviews, narration, and music to enlighten or convince viewers. These productions can come in diverse formats - Direct Cinema captures unscripted scenes with minimal interference, while Historical Docs delve into significant past incidents.

Advocacy Docs advocate for a specific viewpoint. Their intentions can span educational, journalistic, or entertainment purposes and can be distributed in theaters, broadcasted on TV networks, or streamed on the internet.

Experimental Films

Instead of relying on traditional storytelling, these films prioritize form, structure, and cinematic aesthetics. They often play with and challenge established conventions in the film world.

For such films, we mix a list of fragmented narratives, jarring cuts, optical illusions, and surreal imagery. Rather than aiming for mainstream appeal, their goal is to push creative boundaries and explore new artistic territories.

Commercials

We create commercial films with one goal in mind: to showcase a product, brand, or service with creativity. Using captivating visuals, clever storytelling, and persuasive narratives, we aim to capture the attention of our target audience.

Our films range start from 30 seconds and are distributed through various channels such as television, cinema, online platforms, social media, and websites to ensure maximum reach and engagement.
