FADE | 褪色

What do you do when you can’t let go of the person you love? In FADE, a 12 minute poetic film, we explore the habits of a man who is caught on the border between holding on to the comforts of what he knows or facing the reality of the life he has been living. A completely empty New York City is set as the backdrop for the quirky lead character, Mackenzie as we experience his typical days and nights. But does the stillness of his world get disturbed by a mysterious girl he sees during his daily commute or is her appearance an indication that it is time to move on? // © 2016 // Mackenzie: Eric Elizaga // Annie: Tracy Ju // Mystery Subway Girl: Chen Yu // Writer/Director: Howie Lam // Executive Producers: Michaela McKee, Daniel McKeown // Director of Photography: Daniel McKeown // Sound Recordist: Robert Bluemke // Producer: Marc Reina // Production Designer: Marta Castaing // Production Manager: Deno Williams // Production Coordinator: Spencer Light // Script Supervisor: William Sydney // Stylist: Heidi Pakdel // Wardrobe: Sarah Maiorino // Wardrobe Assistant: Rose McKee // Production Assistant: Amanda Louis // Original Music Composer: Reggie Ba-Pe III // Sound Designers: Reggie Ba-Pe III, Benjamin Medillon // Colorist: Kerry Ping // Story by: Vivi Yang
