Emily

Emily (IMDB) was my first crack at a short fiction movie. I'd spent a couple years making documentaries and corporate videos, and I became inspired to write and direct my own short. It's based off of a short story I wrote years ago about and two friends going down a flooded stream together.

We had a budget of about $3,000 and a group of extremely helpful and dedicated friends who wanted to be involved! We spent two nights out at a cabin in the woods of Canada and filmed as much as we could in that time.

Enjoy!
