In 2014 I started making a shot-for-shot reinterpretation of Titanic by James Cameron.  I started it as an quick experiment, but it has now become a dynamic long-term project that has involved 500+ participants from 15 cities across Chile and the United States.  I am producing this experimental film alone,  with almost no budget.  I produce, direct, star in it and I make all of the sets and props with paint and recycled materials that I find in my immediate surroundings. The actors, crew members and participants that I gather are my friends, family, and people that I find in public spaces.  I try to never repeat myself, so all of the scenes are different (ranging from animation to live action) and all the characters change throughout the entire film. I am always Rose and the director.
FAQ 

​Why Titanic?

I like universal subject matters because they speak to everyone. I like the challenge/impossible mission of producing anything interesting with this story. It is popular enough that it becomes an empty frame (or a set of paremeters) that allows me to experiment with freedom within high and low culture. Titanic is a perfect metaphor for anything that involves human ambition; I see everything through the lens of this story, especially through the construction of the 1997 blockbuster by James Cameron.  There's more reasons but I'll keep it short here.

When will it be finished?  How much of it have you filmed so far? What are you missing?

Currently filming and raising funds for production and for post production. 

How is the project financed?
