I can’t thank these two enough @jeffrey_roth@isaak_kimmel . I’m so grateful to have them in my life.
First and foremost, they’re my best friends. They’re my rock climbing buddies. My go to travel buddies. My confidants. They’ve been there for me when I was going through some difficult time in these past few years. In short, they’ve been wonderful all around.
Secondly, they’re some of the best collaborators I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. It was just a joy to work with them. I can’t wait to work with them again. In any capacity.
Even if we never worked together, I’m more than just happy to just hang out and chill with them.
CHECK OUT OUR NEW TRAILER!
Starring @jeffrey_roth , the film follows a directionless young man looking for a job as he makes quiet observations about his friends as they move on with their lives.
I just wanted to say thank you for the entire cast and crew involved in making this film. I couldn’t have done it without them. -Emmanuel

🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨
While I get the rest of the Cage movies sorted, it’s time for this month’s Filmmaker in Focus. I was joined by writer/director @manmanduga for the first in-studio interview of the series. He shared his film inspirations and aspirations as we chatted about filming locally, evolving as a storyteller, and more!

I did a thing tonight. Thanks @thefridacinema for screening @officialburbankmovie . Tonight’s special cuz the Burbank hasn’t been shown in an actual movie theater and tonight, I did.
It’s also my first time screening my films outside of the LA County. I think that’s cool. Stay tuned for more screening especially @jeffgetsajob
I turn 30 today. My 20s was fun and a bit of a rollercoaster. A little confusing and scary at times but nonetheless fun. I'm really looking forward towards my 30s. I feel like I'm a lot closer to my goals and dreams than I was in my 20s.
Whatever I set out to do in my 20s, I accomplished them and more. I'm forever grateful to everyone I've encountered and befriended over the years. You guys made me a better person and opened my eyes to a bigger world when I started my 20s.
I wish I could post 20 photos here to show you guys my favorite moments of my last decade. But 10 would suffice for now.
The photos starts in June 2016 when I graduated from high school and ends at the premiere of @jeffgetsajob in May 2025. Each photo represent favorite moments, important milestones and memories of the last decade. I have more but I guess this will suffice for now.
Just a little artwork I did for the holidays. Been dreaming of making this little illustrations for a series of Christmas cards. Here’s what I have so far.
RETURNING TO THE BIG SCREEN! Come join us at @tzifforg for an encore presentation of “Jeff Gets A Job.” We’d love to see you guys there. Tickets are limited. Link in bio.
