ABOUT THE FILM
Gisette: Text
Gisette was made as my Final Major Project for my Film and Television degree at Solent University. Gisette is the biggest project I've worked on (so far!) and was a mammoth undertaking, from writing an authentic and engaging script, to finding genuine and powerful actors, and building a realistic and accurate world with the production design. However, my team and I came pulled out all the stops and I'm incredibly proud of what we all accomplished.
