Another screening for ‘Last Will and Testament’- the short will be playing at HollyShorts Comedy Film Festival at LOOK Dine-In Cinema in Glendale sometime between May 1st and 3rd, and will also be streaming on BitPix. I’ll post ticket info once I have it- hope to see some friends there!
Logline: A man encounters an unexpected dispute while reading his late father’s will.
This one-take comedy short was designed as a showcase for bold, exaggerated comedic acting, where the energy of the performances drives the humor. I made the decision to shoot it in a single take to amplify the immediacy of the scene, as well as giving the actors space to play, stumble, and surprise in real time. The goal was to create a technically precise piece that still feels unpredictable and silly.

My music video for “Green Eyes” by @mojave_ghost_music is now being hosted on eoFlix courtesy of the Seattle Film Festival, and it’s also public on my Vimeo page (link in my bio).
This was my first time shooting on film, and it also features some amazing animation work by @rexapro and some insane production design by @lyla_rose_flashman . She built an entire living room set on a water stage, with furniture and walls and everything, then we destroyed it with water. I’m very proud of it!
