On March 5–6, the ECG Productions team, under the direction of Maxim Kravchinsky, completed an important filming stage for the upcoming documentary Shadows of Ukiyo-e.
Our main character, collector Tim Kachurov, met with University of Toronto anthropology professor Katie Kilroy-Marac for an intense two-hour conversation about the nature of collecting — its beauty, its meaning, and its darker sides. This thoughtful dialogue will become a key foundation of the film.
We also filmed two opening scenes for the project. For these scenes, Tim Kachurov brought an authentic Japanese kimono, adding a striking visual and historical element to the beginning of the film.
Filming continues.
March 23 — Tim Kachurov will visit our studio.
March 24 — we will film an exciting real auction, where our main character will take part.
Stay tuned for more behind-the-scenes updates from Shadows of Ukiyo-e.
