Field Notes: Inside Al Yarmouk — Filming Reality vs Expectation
Field Notes is a series from Shadowgraph: short audio diaries from the world of filmmaking.
In today’s episode, we talk about the gap between expectation and reality on a filming trip. Specifically, what it’s like to plan for a story and then meet the reality of it, on the ground.
We reflect on our recent shoot in Damascus, Syria, where we filmed inside the Al Yarmouk camp for Palestinians: a geography shaped by conflict, memory, and resistance. This is the first of several episodes unpacking that trip, as we break down not just the logistics of filming in a place like this, but the ethical weight that comes with it.
