Lost in Sound
Assistant Camera
A bittersweet short by filmmaker Adam Neustadter and musician James Iha (Smashing Pumpkins). “Lost in Sound” stars Nora Zehetner (Brick) as a woman who hears a movie soundtrack in her head. The swelling score sends her into a world all her own, preventing her from connecting with people in real life.
The Before Time
Cinematography
When two rival crews head into the desert to shoot a reality show based on a buried Navajo treasure, they discover that truth is not only stranger than fiction, it's more dangerous. Something wants them from digging deeper and from escaping the desert alive.
Bottled Up
Gaffer
A solitary woman (Melissa Leo) earning her living by delivering mail and body piercing, makes every attempt to help her volatile adult daughter (Marin Ireland) get on her feet, and in-so-doing neglects herself, channeling all of her womanly desires into her houseplants...even when a charismatic and industrious environmentalist (Josh Hamilton) moves in with them.
