Just a few (of many) production stills shared with our distributor for @asnowboundchristmas .
Post-Production is going well. Yesterday I had my first in person color session with the colorist and @jenniferashleygoodman . The film is looking very nice and has a great spectrum of variety that I was hoping to achieve.
The @reddigitalcinema Epic Dragon performed very well with @cookeoptics S4/i lensing each image. These images happen to feature folks like @itsmaddiemccormick , @wmarkmccullough , @jenniferashleygoodman , @alegracarr , @therealmontybankston , @ereedy93 , and many others! They made my job so much easier.
Looking forward to releasing in the near future!

Special Thanks to @wmth_west for hosting @jenniferashleygoodman and I to speak about our work with Lakefront Pictures, @lakefrontcreativegroup , @lakefrontactorreels , etc and educating about ways high school students can get a start in the film business.
Interesting fact: I never took high school video production because I wanted to major in Music Education and I already ‘knew’ what I wanted to do. When I found myself at a crossroads because I bombed my audition, I quickly chose TV Production just to ‘have something’. Fast forward to today, 20 years later: speaking to a video production class on my experiences, what various positions do, and how they can get involved.
It was great to bring to elevator back down and I hope to do it again soon! It was wonderful meeting the instructor and the students.
Now Casting: A Snowbound Christmas (Feature Film. SAG/AFTRA Ultra Low Budget Project Agreement)!
Seeking an 8-16 year old girl who identifies as neurodivergent for the LEAD ROLE of Kassidy.
PAID OPPORTUNITY. Open to union and non union talent. Talent of all experience levels encouraged to submit.
Seeking a Chicago, IL Metro Area Local Hire.
Please email [email protected] for additional information and to submit. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD AS YOU SEE FIT!
This is a quintessential Christmas movie, with inclusion at the forefront. The script is SO GOOD, and our director is a rockstar.
Our “Kassidy” will not only be the lead in a movie, but she will have the opportunity to work with a successful lead producer, writer, and supporting actor who is also neurodivergent.
I am so proud to be casting a project that celebrates neurodivergence on both sides of the camera!
Image description can be found in the comments (and there is a low vision version of the flyer posted here as well).
We have an announcement to make! Now introducing… Lakefront Film Institute, Lakefront’s next step in aiding and mentoring the next generation of filmmakers.
We are excited for what’s to come with the not-for-profit and look forward to continue giving back to the community!
