A Peek

Project type

Short Film

Date

Spring 2026

Location

Chicago, Illinois

Synopsis

A peek wouldn't hurt... right?

When a curious teenager catches a glimpse through the window of his mystifying new crush, he finds that his peeping has more consequences than he could've ever imagined.

Starring

Carter Geise as Wilbur, Rachel Rivera as Isla

Written, directed, and edited by Anshika Bhardwaj, A Peek was filmed over three days in March 2026 with a small crew of 12.

As director of photography, I prepared visual and lighting lookbooks, shot lists, and storyboards.

Equipment was rented from Camera Ambassador Rentals. To film, we used a RED Komodo Digital Cinema 6K camera paired with a Cooke lens. The majority was filmed on a shoulder rig, with a few shots supported by a tripod.

A Peek premiered at Loyola's Annual 2026 Illumination Screening. Currently on the festival circuit.
