Hathead; a tale of Lovecraftian horror
Most of our “crew” has known each other for ages. And we wear many hats. But there are only so many hats you can wear on a set before the neighborhood children start pointing and laughing and singing “hathead, hathead, look at all those hats!”, while double-dutching on the sidewalk near a gushing fire extinguisher in the sticky thick of August, before ultimately...
Music
It’s not an easy thing, getting great music for a no-budget movie. Like every other aspect of the process–from funding on through post-production–it takes a mix of generosity, passion for the project, and an understanding that the only way to create something special on scant resources is through collaboration.

We know how it feels to see or hear about a small film like ours and not know if, when, and how you will ever be able to see it. For this reason, we have...
The Battery

Written and directed by Jeremy Gardner, the film follows two former baseball players, Ben and Mickey, months after an unexplained outbreak. Gardner also stars in the film, alongside New York native Adam Cronheim. The film was entirely shot on the Canon 5d mkii by director of photography,...
