This is a video I shot and edited of the Ben Gold DJ Set that TSEvents put on at the Gorg-o-Mish after hours club a few weekends back. Shot on a GH5 and color corrected using FilmConvert. I love those fiberoptic whips.

Scion Trailer
The trailer for “Scion” has gone live!

Stained
“Stained” is intended to be the lasting guilt and scars that trauma brings to those who experience it.
The Toronto International Film Fest has a 1 minute Instagram film competition. I heard about it last Thursday and the deadline for entries was the following Monday at midnight EST.
On Friday I thought of this then wrote it, storyboarded it, cast it, and crewed it. On Sunday we shot it and then began editing. By Monday afternoon I had picture lock and was knee deep in color correction.
With 10 minutes to spare it was submitted into the competition.
“Stained” stars local actors Andrea Vawda, Mark James, and Blazhena Leigh.

It is incredible what you can do when you are self motivated and working with people who feel the same.

Newmerico Pitch Video
Every year Telus supports filmmakers with the opportunity to compete for 1 of 40 $10,000 short film grants. Our entry this year is for a film called “Newmerico”
Newmerico tells the story of a couple who wake up to discover that the country they live in has been sold to a multinational company known as the Pan-Atlantic Northern Conglomerate. At their door is Scott Holmes, one of the hired “Transition Specialists” whos job it is to speak with each household and put them at ease, while supplying them with their new identification documents and answering questions about their place in what is now know as Newmerico.
For the project to secure one of these production grants, people must vote for the project at:

Voting goes from April 3rd to April 6th and you are able to vote for up to 5 projects each day. We would love your support to put Newmerico into full production!
