Career

Filming in outer space

In 2021, Shipenko shot portions of a science fiction film aboard the International Space Station. It is to be the second narrative film shot in space, and first feature film shot in space[note 1]. The project is tentatively called The Challenge (Russian: Вызов, romanized: Vyzov, lit. 'Challenge'), and was shot between the launch of Soyuz MS-19 and return of Soyuz MS-18. The first narrative film filmed fully (the narrative film Return from Orbit had some scenes filmed in space) in outer space was a short film titled Apogee of Fear, shot in 2008. The Challenge was in a race with Tom Cruise and Doug Liman to shoot the first narrative feature film in space[note 1].[2][3][4][5][6] On the ISS Shipenko was in charge of camera, lighting, sound recording and makeup. The acting was done by actress Yulia Peresild.[7] The filming equipment was launched at Progress MS-17[8] and returned on Soyuz MS-18. Pyotr Dubrov and Mark Vande Hei helped with filming.[9]

Notes
  1. Claims about "first film in space" are dubius as other films have been filmed in space previously, like the narrative fictional film Return from Orbit (some scenes filmed in space) and the narrative fictional short film Apogee of Fear (completely filmed in space). Also full feature length documentary films that have been released to movie theaters, like For All Mankind or A Beautiful Planet (a film long enough to be a feature film according to many but not all definitions of feature film) have been filmed in space.
