New film drop: serial monogamous

⚠️NEW FILM DROP!⚠️
Thrilled to release another film for 2023— SERIAL MONOGAMOUS, a 26-minute silent visual short narrative film about two people who can’t get out of their own way and rise into love. SERIAL MONOGAMOUS was inspired by a culmination of Oscar Micheaux’s collective body of silent film work, the French New Wave and the brilliant, collaborative flow of jazz legend, Miles Davis and his score for the 1958 noire/crime film soundtrack, “Ascenseur pour l’échafaud”.

It was truly an honor to have created this film with some amazing, talented individuals. Jeremy Brockman, my ride or die film partner who ANYONE would be so blessed to work with—the focus for us is on making good work. We used @dzofilm Vespid lenses. Gorgeous.
