The conventional way to shoot a nature film would be to get out into the great outdoors and document it—but third-year Belgium film student Boris Godfroid has proven that this need not be the only way.
Godfroid has recently produced a charming short that shows snails and insects going about their day in what looks like a patch of dewy, mossy ground in the garden—in fact, every scene in the film was shot indoors, in a tiny studio.
With just some spare bricks and transplanted moss, the creative filmmaker built a miniature garden indoors, before unleashing the ‘film stars’ on the set.
The resulting film, shot on a Nikon D7000, is surprisingly realistic and convincing—watch it below.
