SYNOPSIS

A troupe of actors, escaping through the mountains from a civil war are caught in a violent winter storm and seek shelter in an abandoned puppet theatre. The eccentric old puppeteer who lives in the theatre gives the acting troupe refuge overnight. During the night, while the adults are asleep, he tells the two restless children the story of Pinocchio. When one of the children asks: “Is it a true story?” the old man replies: “It’s more than true, it’s real. I mean, when I tell it—it happens.” Thus begins the well-known tale of the wooden boy who must learn some hard lessons before he can become real.

This project was created by Summer, co-written with Olyvia Chac-Nguyen and produced by Stephanie Duong and SUM SUM Productions. This project is meant to be a short film narrative exploring the themes of identity, multi-cultural family dynamics, adversity with racism and microaggressions and the beauty of letting go. The team is made up of a predominately Vietnamese-American production team. 

Adopted by their immigrant grandparents, a Vietnamese-American kid longs for self-acceptance and discovers the reality of letting go.

This project will be shot across 2 days because of budget (two 12hr days). All sequences will be shot in Jacksonville, FL. Goal of this film is for distribution as well as exposure in film festivals. 

Two criminals (father and son) attempt to leave town after a botched job in robbing a residence. Although they begin to face their own destructive nature head on which may lead to their own demise.

The story focuses on the subject matter of our fight with the flesh. (Romans 7:7-25, Galatians 5:16-21, Ephesians 2:3). The flesh will be personified to demonstrate in a visual representation the struggle we go through in fighting against our own earthly desires.

The "flesh" will be an actual person with a faceless mask (similar in stature and body type to each character) to magnify how real and difficult the fight can be.

Both characters (Reuben and Mel) struggle with thievery as well as also addiction to drugs and alcohol. 

Asarai will be Reuben's love interest and represent one who fights the flesh with God's grace apart from human efftort.

Will be a PG-13 RATING.

A low budget (NON UNION) full length Sci Fi adventure broken up into 15 minute chapters for my monetized YouTube channel and also will be submitted to DUST. This is a non paid project with a well written script. Can provide water and snacks. Filming will take place in Nevada City, Ca one hour drive outside of Sacramento in the Sierra Nevada Foothills. We have costumes for most but not all characters. We have props and models and most will be filmed on a green screen so bring your imagination with you. As the editor and VFX artist I will be using NUKE foundry, Unreal Engine 5.2.3, Houdini and DaVinci Resolve studio. I look forward to hearing from you and should start production by May when it stops raining. 

We are looking at the classic good vs evil Sci Fi scenario that takes place within our Solar System. Earth is overran by a ruthless cult like practice that runs as a world government. The good guys have taken refuge in a secret hidden base on the moon right under their noses and some outposts on Mars. Lots of adventure, comedic relief and drama.
