Creatur: film

4000 feet of film later.... The film has a running time of 72 min. Shot on (2) 16mm cameras. Had to be shot one and a half times due to a re-cast of the main character when the shoot was almost finished and 5 years later, finally completed.

Creatur by Jardon Films will have it's premier in Chicago. It is an Official Selection for the 2009 Chicago Filipino American Film Festival on Nov.8

Now that we're finished making the movie, the hard part begins....distribution and a bunch of legal forms.

Furlee : "Brown Baby"

This is a music video that we shot November '08 for my friend Albert and a young Chicago MC named Furlee, who previously recorded an album with his partner Roper under the group name "The Landlords".

We shot the video, again on our 16mm Bolex. I will be helping promote Furlee in the coming months with this video and designing his album cover. I really like Furlee's style of hip hop, his flow and what he talks about, which made it that much easier to working with him-plus the fact we're from the same district of Chicago where i grew up. check it out!.....for those in the know, dont ask about the movie. we are at the final stretch (which we know, the beggining and end of a project is the toughest) and have prioritized completing it this October for early submissions for 2010 film fest season. wish us luck!
