What is this project all about?

QUIRK - a 360° short film


QUIRK

When a young programmer observes an apparently unsuspecting woman through her security cam, he has no idea what turn his voyeuristic hobby is going to take and that the roles are not as clearly assigned as it seemed.


What's it about?
According to current estimates by various technology institutes, there are more than 1,000,000,000 cameras with online access - hundreds of thousands of them without any protection, that means, those can be accessed by EVERYONE .

Our film picks up this fact and is based around it, as it follows the (fictional) story of a young woman in her living room & a young man who passionately likes to observe other people.
And that's where the big advantage of 360° videography comes into play - you don't just watch; you are there yourself. You become a VOYEUR yourself.

A few more Details about QUIRK...

  • 360° Short Film
  • Genre: Thriller/Horror
  • Language: German, English depending on the funding No dialogues, easily understandable from all around the world.
  • Subtitles: German, English, more languages depending on the the funding
  • Directors: Anja Kollmann & Philipp Teucher

What is the project goal and who is the project for?

Not everyone thinks about their own security on the Internet, the link to "real life" also remains unprotected in many cases. In addition to smart home systems, this primarily affects cameras with online access - even though they often provide intimate insights.
If words alone are not enough to make this clear, QUIRK may help to understand what that means.


But our main objective is not to educate, but to thrill, disturb and of course entertain viewers and voyeurs (YOU?!).

For maximum level of immersion, we recommend a VR headset, but you will also be able to experience QUIRK on your computer, smartphone, tablet and even smart TV.

How will we use the money if the project is successfully funded?

What we have...

We have most of the equipment needed, especially large expenses like camera and lighting equipment are already covered.
Additionally we put together a film crew of currently 9 people from different fields - and we likely already have our male lead actor.


What we need...

We are still in need for funding for crew, actors, accommodation, locations etc.. Around 3500€ are needed as a minimum, 7500€ to work according to plan.

Who are the people behind the project?

  • The idea behind QUIRK comes from Anja Kollmann & myself - Philipp Teucher.
  • Sven Ohlendorf, who wrote the script based on our idea and concept.
  • Rebecca with a good eye for script/continuity.
  • Andi, who keeps the production running and helps organizing on-site.
  • Patrick and (another) Philipp, who help were they are needed on the set.
  • Gabi, who volunteered to make sure the 10-15 people on-set are never hungry and takes care of the catering.
  • The production is taken care of by Veorama and sePTemsoft UG, the company behind the Veorama team.
  • 360° cameras, lighting- and other equipment is also provided by Veorama and sePTemsoft UG.
