Lux Alibi 13 - Nefeg's Castle
Two days in this magnificent location, Piediluco Castle, above the Piediluco Lake.
There were many scenes to make: Dialogue between Nefeg and Nefelia, Mauro and Finvarra prowling into the castle, Stealing the Moon Stone, Battle and escape, dialogue between Nadir and Nefelia... Really a lot to do and a lot of people involved!
We were all a bit stressed, but at the end we got a very rewarding week-end. With perfect weather, nice company and this magnificent place, this week-end will always be a beautiful memory for us.

In this week-end we are at "Nefeg's castle", where our heroes will struggle to get the Moon Stone.
-
Setting up the set. Gabriele, Daniela, Silvia, Igor and Matteo.
-
White balancing the camera, just before the action.
When you have two different cameras, doing manual white balance is really essential! -
Frame from the film: Mauro and Finvarra prowling in the castle.
-
Frame from the film: They catch Finvarra...
-
...And Mauro remains alone in the hostile castle!
-
Lunch break.
-
For Nefeg's castle we have chosen the impressive ruins of Piediluco Fortress. This place was supposed to be closed to public... But fortunately the gate was broken :-)
-
The first time we came, scouting the location, we found that was impossible to get into the tower and to the upper level of the castle... But today we have a ladder!
-
Next scene will take place on the tower.
-
On the top of the tower, planning the framing for the next scene.
-
Panorama of the Piediluco Lake from the Piediluco Castle.
-
The two witches Nadir (Flaminia) and Nefelia (Silvia). Maurilio and Matteo directing and filming.
-
Frame from the film: Nefelia and Nadir.
-
While we are filming the Baron poses for some heroic photos.
-
Frame from the film: last scene for today is an impossible battle in the narrow passages of the tower.
-
All done for today!
-
After dinner and before partying and singing around the fire... Our friends want to see the result of their efforts.
-
We camp on the upper level of the castle, in a place that is always out of the set.
I think it was the main room of the castle, but now it has a roof of stars... -
Good morning!
-
Flaminia.
-
Some friends join us today for the grand battle scene... and they bring the breakfast!
-
While the other are preparing the battle scene, Matteo and Maurilio are filming their intrusion in the castle (so the scene immediately before the ones filmed yesterday).
-
Faminia enjoying the cold October morning, with the wind blowing up her cloak.
-
Preparing for the main battle: we are 12 people, but will be more after some special effects ;-)
Tripods make life much easier when you have to deal with special effects! -
Frame from the film: 11 people become 17... and more will come.
-

People come and people go... Finally the perfidious sorcerer Nefeg arrives at his castle.
-
Someone bring some pastries, slurp!
-
Nefeg steals the pastries and run to the upper floor: perfidious! :-)
-
Davide and the cream pastry. In Italian we say "beccato col sorcio in bocca": literary "caught with the mouse in the mouth" :-)
-
Just a last look to the storyboard...
-
...And let's film Nefeg getting back from the prison-dream.
-
Frame from the film: Nefeg breaks the spell and gets out from the prison-dream.
-
Nefeg in battle!
-
Week-end filming means always a lot of luggage.
-
Sorcerer's rest.
-
Last battle scene.
-
Someone wake up Mihai: we need the perfidious sorcerer for the next scene!
-
For the last scene we need the dusk. We have to be ready: the light will be good for no more than 20 minutes.
-
We are filming again on top of the tower. The dialogue between Nefeg...
-
...and Nefelia.
In the film this dialogue happens the evening before all the scenes we have been filming this two days. -
THE EVIL!
-
Well, it was a really intense and restless week-end!
-
Let's go home!
-
Ciao Piediluco Castle!
