Polenta Productions (Bravo!Fact Short Film)
Director : Mark Montefiore
Production Designer: Cameron Porteous
Back in '93 is about a 10 year old boy's coming of age tale as a closet Montreal Canadiens’ fan living in Leafs-Loving Southern Ontario during the 1993 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
I can even costume an elephant.
The boy's dream comes true, the Canadiens win the Stanley Cup. This shot is from the dream sequence that occurs at the end of the film. There was a marching band, angels and even an real elephant. All that we dresses in red, white and blue. The Art Department also had the task of decorating the houses on the block in the Canadien's colours. For another scene we had to decorate the block in white and blue and Maple Leaf memorabilia.
The family home, obsessed Leaf fans. A lot of blue...
The boy's closet shrine to the Canadiens. I had to delve into the mind of a ten-year-old and create the drawings, find the magazine clippings and collect the memorabilia. I even made the aluminum foil Stanley Cup.
