SBIFF 2018

I was honored to have a narrative short that I wrote, directed, filmed, and edited accepted into the Santa Barbara shorts category at SBIFF for the second year in a row.

It was beyond awesome to have my most ambitious project to date, The Red Flag, premiere at The Arlington Theater. I spent countless hours in post using After Effects and Element 3D to create several scenes featuring CGI elements and backgrounds. The film features several actors I’ve worked with in other Beachfront Comedy projects – Sean Jackson, Paul Canter, and Robert Byrne.

I also had the privilege of speaking on a panel along other Santa Barbara filmmakers.

I’ll have a more detailed post on production details of The Red Flag that will coincide with the YouTube release in a few weeks.  Also, I haven’t forgot about Eleven, Years Later Episode 3 … still slaving over it in post!
