The 1976-1979 class at Escola Náutica
Inf. D. Henrique (silent video)

Highlight
This video shows the 1976-1979 class of Merchant Navy
Radio Officer, at Escola Náutica Inf. D.
Henrique (ENIDH), a nautical school where I studied from 1977 to 1980.
For the small history, in 1979 I was 19 years old and did my first
production and direction work for TV: an advertising film, 40
seconds long, done on 16 mm color reverse film, to advertise
Escola Náutica in
the Portuguese TV stations. This was also the first advertising
TV film ever made for ENIDH.
Filmed with a Beaulieu camera and Angenieux zoom optics, courtesy
of my friend Nuno Monteiro Pereira, editing and sound had the TV
station
support. I did the voice over, also my first time as a
professional.
Pre-production started mid July, test shooting in the 1st
week of August, and the shooting took place on a single day using
60 people I hired for free and a lunch meal, using two newspaper
ads, since in August the school was empty: all students where on vacations!
The students and teachers in the TV ad are phony!
