Palm Trees - a short film
Made by People.
Two souls trudging the road of happy destiny one sunny morning in Los Angeles, surrounded by palm trees.
.
Love. That’s what it’s all about.
Love friends. Life. Art. Love struggles, love pain, love loss, love wins, love gains… all of it.
We don’t get that much time. That’s what this little film is about.
Entitlement, serenity, gratitude, sobriety, faith, love, happiness, and growth are all present in this piece. As they are in life. We’re perfectly imperfect beings, trying to do our best.
We all have our manner of vice and character defects. But that’s not what defines us.
What defines us is what we do about them.
And if we’re lucky… we get to do it surrounded by people we love.
Much love.

Absolutely magical performances by
@faerybee and Jonathan Dylan King. Powerhouses. Blessed to work with them, and even more blessed to call them friends.
CREW:
DP:
@kurtcollins is a miracle man. A man and a cam and makes it look like a TV show. Wow.
Producer:
@s.martin_film helped every step of the way. A tank. Total rockstar talent and brother in arms.
Grip:
@connerleephotography became the glue. In true universe fashion, he’s already landed new opportunities from this little film. That’s the magic of creating.
Sound:
@derek.zen . Shooting next to a busy highway with every imaginable flying and driving sound pollution. He handled it like a champ and a pro, and kept us all laughing the whole way through. Hire this dude!
Score & Music: Then the queen herself,
@madisonmontgomerymusic My better half. Every note of music in this piece she created from scratch. The ending song is a legit banger. I’m never going to stop being amazed at what she’s able to dream up and execute at the highest level.
Post Audio:
@denzelreckless , the super triple OG homie from Denver, came on board at the end to help with the mess I made in the edit haha. He used his immense knowledge and experience to help clean up and fix all the audio I destroyed. And boom… all of a sudden, a movie was in there. Hire him too!
.
Hope y’all enjoy this little piece. Or not. Either way. I’m so glad we made it, and we have many more to make.
Much love.
