“Hairy”

Anyone who has ever shot on film knows how challenging and expensive it can be. This film, my USC thesis, was shot on 16mm and on a very low budget. It played very well in the festival market, including winning the “Audience Award” at the Newport Beach Film Festival. It also was optioned in Europe, playing over the internet on entertainment channels.

Is it outdated? Perhaps. What I could do today with the latest effects software and access to modern video cameras.

But that’s the nature of our business. What is not outdated, and what I’m most proud about with this film is the story. In my opinion it still holds up. And that’s what is most important in any piece of content. Story matters.
