Kickstarting SLEEPWALKERS

This past Summer, I had the incredible opportunity to work on an indie feature with some incredible artists.  The film is called Sleepwalkers (you may have seen some BTS photos in the gallery!) and the Kickstarter page has just gone live today.

We wrapped principle photography in mid-August and the the post-production team has been working to get a theatrical edit ready to begin submitting to festivals around the country.  This is where you can help out!!!

Right now we're looking for funds to hire a professional color-corrector and sound engineer to take an already beautifully shot film and bump the quality up to the next level.  We're also looking for a little help to pay our composer, who has done some amazing work.

Please check out the page; watch the video and get a glimpse of some of the footage from the movie; donate (if it excites you); and please help us promote the Kickstarter Drive  by adding a like or a share.

Here's the link to the Kickstarter page!

While You Wait For The Others

THESIS!

That's happening right now at Three-Legged Dog!  I'll update the calendar tonight, but do get a chance to come and come check us out before we close on the 23rd.  If you have any questions, let me know via the contact page, or visit www.columbiastages.org for more info.

I've been keeping busy in the mean time.  Today's video comes courtesy of Madeline Leshner, who scripted and directed this short for a class at NYU and set it to Grizzly Bear's "While You Wait For The Others".

Hope you enjoy it!

CU Film - Fiction

 Last Friday, I met up with the wonderful Ariel Puls up in the Bronx (that was a train ride!) to help out Dorian Alvarado (CU Film '13) with an editing project for one of his classes. 

He's a super talented and genuinely nice guy (as are all of the CU Film people. If you ever get a chance to work with them, DO). And he's been kind enough to share his project for people to see. 

Warning: I play a jerk.  Also, he found a way to light me in a way that makes it appear that I have biceps, which again should be an indicator of how talented the CU Film department is!
