Proud of our team on this one. Our short film The Rites of Man just snagged a win at the Innuendo International Film Festival.
The festival is dedicated to showcasing the best of arthouse and experimental filmmaking, so it's an honor to have our crazy philosophical experiment get noticed.
Thanks to everyone who helped make this possible!

AI slop has already taken over Silicon Valley and destroyed the internet, now it’s coming after movies.
Prophet of Hollywood Brother Greg warns and comforts the masses of moviegoers about the coming demonic spirt of AI slop. He calls on directors, actors, and even producers to rise up and resist this dark influence from taking over film and cinema.

I love the way our cinematographer @luxelement was able to get some truly powerful shots while working with zero crew and in the doc film medium.
These two shots of our amazing talent @tdawg_slim and @nukivanlent were captured on @kodak_shootfilm 250D with a 40 year old @arri SR2
THE RITES OF MAN (2025)
Time-traveling anthropologists document the heartbreak of an aspiring entrepreneur in Los Angeles.
In ir/reverent homage to mid-20th century documentary films, this fictional documentary turns a comically “objective” lens on the shadows of trauma lurking behind American masculinity. And it does so with a level of craft and care that will delight and inspire audiences.
Filmed entirely on @kodak_shootfilm 16mm film. Premieres fall 2025.
Shout out to our team.

Here’s a fun one I made with my friends at @authorscreativecompany and with @jpzy88 . In this intro for a Meta design education program I wanted to allude to the history of computer interfaces. It starts with an homage to early user interfaces like Engelbart’s “mother of all demos“, moves through early 3D design, and then culminates on a mixed reality scene. We used After Effects, Blender and Figma for the UI design. Also had fun with the sound design. #motiondesign #aftereffects #blender #blender3d
