“Residents”

“Two thieves accidentally break into the same house and end up creating the friendship of a lifetime with the tenant living inside.”

Residents is a silent film created by a close-knit crew of five friends during the unsure time of COVID-19. The timeframe of this film shoot spanned one year and two states, shooting in both Flagstaff, AZ and Portland, OR.

We are so thankful to have had the privilege to combine quality time with friends with a shared love for filmmaking! Post Production has begun on this film and we look forward to crafting a musical score for it and submitting it to festivals in the upcoming months.

“Lifelines”

“A lonely sound engineer decides to finally reach out to his crush and reconnect with his sister by pretending to use them both as phone lifelines on a game show.”

Lifelines would not have been possible without the amazing cast, crew and support network of UTV Studios at Northern Arizona University. It was truly a wonderful experience having all the creative minds and ideas come together to create this joy of a short film.

We are currently submitting the film to various festivals worldwide. Be sure to check out our amazing partners at Just4youstudios, who have skillfully taken charge of festival submissions for the film!

“Dias Que Pase Bajo El Sol”

“A documentary which follows a young musician as he returns to his home in Spain to create new memories with old friends.”

This documentary was a particularly unique challenge for us. Our director, Nicolas Taylor, shot the entire film in Spain with family and friends. Once back in the states, he worked with our editor and producer, Noah Bernardo, to present the exciting and creative life of a young musician and show how our most valued relationships can grow and change over time.

This film is heading into the film festival circuit and we hope our audiences enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed making it. Special shout out to our great friends with Solar Side for bringing their immense musical talent and wonderful personalities to our film!
