New PRODUCER REEL alert! Actually, this is my very first producer reel… ever. Only 12 years in the making :) I promise to shamelessly self promote more regularly in the future. Confession… I found it incredibly difficult to summarize a decade or so of film, tv, and commercial work in 1 minute. But luckily some amazing and talented people worked on this reel and elevated it, including @gavin_buckland (editor) @tucurly4u (GFX) and Ryan Pribyl (sound design & mix). Thank you! One of the beautiful things about producing is you often produce in teams. You get the opportunity to work with other producers, agencies, and production companies with different strengths and skill sets and you learn from them. Many of the projects on this reel were made in collaboration with: OX Creative Stories International Falconer ODB Films Domain Entertainment Apartment Therapy Duo Films Touchstorm XRM Capture Moore WinniePeg Productions/160over90 ALM Films Sneak Preview Entertainment ReKon Productions Flyover Studios And “Away We Go” and “Our Family Wedding” were produced while I was Director of Development & Production at Edward Saxon Productions. With gratitude, Justin. #reel #demoreel #producerreel #producing #film #tv #commercials #brandedentertainment #creativeproducing #lineproducing #scriptdevelopment #budgeting #scheduling #packaging #casting #productionservices #postsupervising #generalliabilityinsurance #workerscomp #payroll #accounting

The Little Things. (Director’s Cut) A shared cup of chai. Moments with family. Memories made without noticing they’re being made. These are the things that quietly disappear when freedom is taken—and return, full of weight and wonder, when freedom is restored. Produced in partnership with International Justice Mission, this film—told in Telugu—shares the true story of Appa Rao and the work of reclaiming life’s smallest, most human joys. Because when freedom returns, the little things mean everything.
 This project has been especially meaningful for me as I’ve personally been a small donor to IJM’s social justice work for 15 years, and it was such an honor to produce this for them – I’m a huge fan!
