The Extortionist (Short Film)

A few different bases were covered by me for this short film by my buddy Logan Williams, serving as the 1st AD, Gaffer/Key Grip and Assistant Editor.  I also acted as the production’s Visual Effects Artist/Compositor.  All lighting equipment was supplied by one studios, my lil production company.  The effects were done in Adobe After Effects and Photoshop CS5/6.

Logan is an up and coming filmmaker currently finishing his final year at Loyola Marymount University in the L.A. area.  He’s been a colleague of mine since 2011 and I always enjoy working with him.  Look out for his future work, as well as more projects on this site with his involvement as he and I continue to work together within the one studios Universe of productions.  Of course, be keen to projects we work together on of his creation and those of others too.

Fight 4 Your Life – Running Teaser Trailer

This is a teaser trailer I did for my short film Fight 4 Your Life.  It was created to give people an idea as to what my team and I are going for as we create the full length feature film version of Fight 4 Your Life, which is currently in production.  I developed all aspects of this teaser, including the voice-over…..because I had no one else!!  🙂

For more info on this clip, as well as F4YL, read the description below the video, taken from the one studios Vimeo page.  Thanks for viewing.  Your support is much appreciated!

TAKEN FROM one studios VIMEO PAGE:

As we here at one studios buckle down to get the feature version of F4YL shot this summer, we are releasing various media to promote the film. Trailers, such as this “Running Teaser”, are meant to give viewers a glimpse at what F4YL is set to look like.

The footage used in all current F4YL trailers, including this “Running Teaser” was taken from the Fight 4 Your Life short shot in 2012, which is what the idea for the F4YL feature stemmed from. Note that this teaser is meant to give a glimpse into the color schemes and feel of the F4YL feature, not totally represent what it will look like. The feature version is being shot with certain color schemes, visual effects and more in mind, where as the short version was not.

The one studios crew hopes you enjoy this teaser and looks forward to getting more media out for you to view and interact with soon!  It’s a hectic process.  But it’s getting done.  Please feel free to leave comments.  And, PLEASE, do tell others about Fight 4 Your Life.  The funding campaign has launched.  You can donate via the official F4YL site or by contacting us directly.  We will be relaunching our Kickstarter campaign with more ferocity soon.  We can use all the help we can get!
