Johanna, a troubled girl in her late teens decide to go camping with her boyfriend Thomas, after the need of a break from her stressful life in the city and the recent passing-away of her little sister Cynthia. Despite being ”warned” by her friends who have never met Thomas, Johanna decides to go along on the camping-tour. But when they’ve finally settled in in the middle of a deserted forest, they realize something is terribly wrong…

"Campsite" is the biggest production for Redhawk Productions so far, spanning from early June 2008 to it being finished mid-July 2009, after spending seven months in post-production, mostly due to much of it being shot as day-for-night. It also the longest film produced by the film company.

Shot in HDV using a Sony HDR-FX1E, with production starting on August the 17th 2008 and finishing on the 12th of December the same year. Edited on Mac, using Final Cut Studio 2, with grading done in Apple Color. Compositing and VFX were done in FXhome VisionLab Studio, poster work in FXhome PhotoKey 2 Pro, and web compression using FXhome VideoWrap!

Sorry I didn't get a chance to look at this sooner Red, but this is a huge production from you and kudos for the work going into it. I agree with the choice of shots in here as they are varied in many good ways. It doesn't get too boring visual-wise. The suspense was done well as it was a slow burn feeling. The acting of Johanna was very passable in this and Thomas' varied from credible to almost sleepwalking through certain parts. I didn't get the feeling that he felt like he was in any danger. After seeing the before and after shots I could really appreciate the work in grading and compositing that you've done. Some of the music fit nicely (like the piano at the 25 minute marker) and some placement of music was rather odd (like the music at 9:50 - from VCPs Pro Scores library). The audio needs to be leveled out better. At moments the dialogues level is fine, then the next, the music or sounds of bags drown everything out. Regardless, this was quite an enjoyable ride and am thoroughly inspired by the effort you've put out by this Red.

So, I wrote a decently-lengthy review of this film only to have my computer die and it all go to a loss. I'll give you the uber-quick review right now and get to the rest when I have a chance. I'm one for honesty with my friends and people I know are talented so here it is: This was good, but not great. It's got a lot of crazy ambition, and that's both an overwhelming gift and a terrible curse to it- as for every successful aspect for me, sadly, there are creatively ambitious choices that don't fully come to fruition. The movie's length, day-for-night, greenscreening the car. These seem like harder AND less-convincing choices, and they confuse me. Good old fashioned Redhawk would have helped here- more 'raw' filmmaking, as it were. The length goes along with this too-its a movie that feels ambitious because of how long it is, but not out of necessity narratively. To me this would have worked better as a 10-15 minute short; and kept better suspenseful momentum. So here's some great technical aspects, masterful ones, but also some head-scratchingly odd/bad ones, and this leaves me in such a flip flop position with what consensus to give it. Additionally, the narrative structure falls into the same kind of pro/con situation. But it's massively improved and cleaned up since I saw it last, and overall it works. I know I'm keeping it fairly negative, and I apologize for that, but I'll get to the rest later. The effort is admirable. A general 4/5. More to come soon...
