For the 79th Venice Film Festival I met with the award winning mexican production designer Eugenio Caballero, who was present for film Bardo, False Chroncle of a Handful of Truths in competition at biennale cinema on Lido di Venezia with the director Alejandro G.Inarritu, and cast and crew attending the event. Caballero shares his thoughts and instincts on the Set design process, and offers an insight into the comedy and intensity of working with both director and the cinematographer Darius Khondji in exposing a narrative through many colourful layers of mexicanity and pre hispanic culture. I highly recommend the visual journey which Bardo takes us on, Caballero's use of imagery and intensity of perception creates another world by digital canvas rolled seemlessly through film.
Enjoy!
