Two years down, a lifetime to go. I feel so lucky to be on this adventure with you. Here’s to many more years of love, laughter, and pretending we know what we’re doing!
Last month, @uatheatrefilmtv filmmakers Myles Gordon, Ryan Ramsey, Anna Agosto and Jackson Huffman screened their senior thesis films, took part in a panel, and made industry connections at Comic-Con 2024. Myles and Ryan documented their experience at the event - check out this clip in which Myles asks Jackson about his Comic-Con takeaways, and go watch the amazing full video right now at their new YouTube channel @ProductionJourneyContent ... link in bio!
Three senior thesis films have been selected to screen at the 20th annual San Diego International Children’s Film Festival at @comic_con . Jackson Huffman‘s RICARDO RIVERA AND THE MINES OF MONTEZUMA, Myles Gordon‘s THE REMATCH and Anna Agosto‘s LIGHT UP LULU will all screen at the San Diego Convention Center in July. The festival has partnered with Comic-Con – the world’s largest pop-culture convention with 140,000 visitors annually – for the past 16 years.
“My family and I have been attending Comic-Con for years so to have my film be a part of this festival is a dream come true,” says Huffman, whose film debuted at I Dream in Widescreen a month ago. “I plan to attend the festival and I am excited to see a brand new audience react to the film. In my mind this is the perfect festival and location for my film, with all the magic and adventure baked into the story. I’m honored to be joining Myles and Anna at the festival. Knowing I get to represent TFTV alongside these two talented filmmakers while also representing my hometown of Tucson makes this whole experience incredibly special.”
This year has been a crazy roller coaster but I’m glad you were there for all of it! You have been such a light in my life and I can’t wait to experience the rest of the world with you!
IDIWS Sneak Peek: RICARDO RIVERA AND THE MINES OF MONTEZUMA by Jackson Huffman. In a forgotten roadside mine attraction, Ricky, a daydreaming tour guide, must answer the call to adventure to thwart treasure hunters and uncover the truth behind a mysterious artifact: The Mirror of Montezuma.
“Growing up in Arizona, there weren’t a lot things you could do in the summertime but watch movies and swim in your friend’s pool. That meant I spent a lot of time sitting in front of the TV watching movies like Indiana Jones or Zorro. Those films instilled a sense of wonder and fun into the world that I hope to try and replicate.” says writer/director Jackson Huffman.
