Después de recaudar más de 3.000 millones de dólares en todo el mundo con sus cinco entregas cinematográficas y de vender millones de libros, el fenómeno 'Crepúsculo' sigue vivo. La última iniciativa vinculada a la franquicia ha tenido como resultado siete cortometrajes que servirán para saciar a aquellos con más de conocer más sobre el mundo creado por Stephanie Meyer.
En estas breves películas publicadas en Facebook los protagonistas ya no son Edward y Bella, sino que el foco está centrado en el pasado de aquellos personajes que les acompañaron durante su turbulenta odisea. Entre ellos nos encontramos con Carlisle y Garrett reunidos de nuevo, con Benjamin en Egipto o incluso con Jane y Alec en el siglo IX.
El proceso de realización de estos cortometrajes no ha sido como el de cualquier película fan made, sino que ha contado con el apoyo de Lionsgate y Meyer, que eligió los siete guiones que saldrían adelante en febrero. De esta manera se ha promovido darle voz a jóvenes guionistas, todas mujeres mayores de trece años, que han firmado los libretos.
Por todo lo alto
No solo Meyer se involucró en el proyecto, sino que para elegir a las personas que se encargarían de realizar cada vídeo se tuvo en cuenta la opinión de influyentes actrices y cineastas como Catherine Hardwicke y Kristen Stewart, vinculadas en su momento con la franquicia, y Kate Winslet, Octavia Spencer, Jennifer Lee y Julie Bowen.
