A Case Study for Creative X Entertainment's DGA Award winner and Emmy Nominated short film; Welcome Back.
The Mission
Welcome Back [watch trailer here] tells the story of a mother and her daughter, who after being deported back to their native country, Venezuela, must find a way to escape to safety. This project was fueled by Creative X Entertainment’s ties to the ongoing Venezuelan crisis and our general frustration with the political turmoil at the time.
With our co-founder Tiffany's family roots in Venezuela, this story not only felt natural but close to home for several reasons.
Our internal objective was to tell an authentic, captivating story on a limited budget. To maintain the story’s authenticity, we knew we would have to shoot internationally and do so on a timeline constraint.
This opened the door to an abundance of obstacles and challenges, inspiring us to think outside of the box.
