Black Irish
Im feeling pressure to write a bunch of blog posts to get my massive amount of readers up to speed with what's going on lately. A couple of years ago I decided to start writing short films. This was in direct response to being frustrated at 1) The lack of Theatrical auditions I was getting and 2) The quality of the one's I did get. Since then I have written two short films both of which have been produced. The first "Yard Sale" was made on a shoestring budget and was the result of a lot of favors. It went on to a bunch of festivals and we got a great response, and although it didn't win anything we got to travel around the country meet cool people, drink good cocktails and support our film.
Im proud to announce that the second "Black Irish" is finally complete. This one we got to do through the American Film Institute's Directing Workshop for Woman and the budget was considerably larger. We are now out to a bunch of festivals and we are really crossing our fingers that we'll get in. We have had a premier at the Director's Guild of America where our talented Director Anika Poitier won the Adrienne Shelley Foundation Filmmaking Grant!
