As the writer and DoP of Red Scare, I had the opportunity to work alongside an incredibly talented team to create this project. I’m proud of the agency and intensity of our female led story, within a historic backdrop. The strong visuals, in lighting and creating a changing style alongside the story was a fulfilling experience. I’m excited to show off our hard work as a team with Red Scare.

Red Scare is a psychological- thriller short film set in 1950s Cold War America. The film follows Mary, a housewife whose idealistic life begins to crumble around her as she begins to see the colour red within her black and white world. Through a distinct visual style and historic setting, Red Scare explores the effects that misinformation can have on oneself and the ones they love.
