We shot this a while back and are finally getting it online. Hope you like it because if not, you’re ugly/stupid/childish.

Andrew Ford was the Assistant Director! Steve Levine shot it! Justin Matthew produced the music! Sam Fox-Hartin PA’d!

Everybody had fun!

Three years ago, Paul Briganti, Kevin Mead, and I made this 22 minute short film, starring TJ Miller.

Over time, we recut it, and decided recently to release it on the internet to the public.

This was by far the hardest thing I’d ever done in my entire life. I was a junior in college and knew nothing about how to make a film; all I knew is that I wanted to. So I worked my ass off. And Paul and Kevin did even more so - they co-directed this, and it’s something I’m very proud of.

I know it’s not the kind of thing you can watch while you’re doing 8 other things, so if you happen to find a free 20 minutes and want to watch, I hope you like it.

Trying to release this online and make it successful without approaching traditional distribution channels is a bit of an experiment, so if you’re able to help out at all by passing this video around, we would love you. Passionately. It would last forever until we die together at the same time while making out at the age of 6000.

Starring TJ Miller, Molly Ryman, Joe Wengert, Lynn Laurence, Mitch Wissick, and Bobby Moynihan.

Written by Kevin Mead, Paul Briganti, and Darren Miller.

Directed by Paul Briganti and Kevin Mead

Produced by Darren Miller, Kevin Mead, and Paul Briganti

Music by Emily Axford, Plushgun, and Jukebox The Ghost.

Thanks for the well written description of passion, Darren!

We made this film a few years ago and were lucky enough to have a bunch of friends and very talented people be in it.

I’m really happy people can see it. It is a very long watch for the internet, but if you have nothing to do on your lunch break, tune in!!

Yea, thanks Darren! And thanks Paul! And thanks to every person who helped us make this happen.

For a short, this film has changed so many times since the initial cut, and I am really happy with where it ended up. Pretty much everything I’ve learned about writing and filmmaking can be tracked according to the progress of this film, and I owe that to all the incredibly talented people who helped us make this. Thanks everyone! And if you haven’t seen it, check it out, yo!

Roman Polanski: “Whatever, haters. I’ma do me.” (A review of “Ghost Writer”)

SPOILER ALERT - By the end of this post, I will have totally ruined the ending of this movie.

Anyone who has been lucky enough to sit through a successful long-form improv set will tell you; few theater experiences can measure up to the satisfaction of predicting a move, moments before a performer nails it in the scene. It’s a big ol’ back scratch for the intellect, to feel that are you engaged in the performance enough to be on the exact same page as the players (possibly even ahead of them, which can happen as often as not…). Now imagine that feeling, but instead of the immediate satisfaction of having your predictions realized on stage, that pleasure coming 30+ minutes after you first suspect that you “know something.” That’s what it felt like to watch “Ghost Writer.” In this case, the main prediction was that the main character, Ewan MacGregor was going to be dead by the end. Granted, this fact was overly-foreshadowed throughout the film. But what made it so satisfying is the simple fact that it happened. And in such straightforward way.

There was a brief period in my life where I spent a lot of time making computer music. Like, a shit-load of time (which, if you’re wondering, is far too much). This is about as far as I got. So, here’s a K. Mead original - ”Green Eyes (But Only Sometimes)”
