The final stretch of post. Feeling very grateful today & every day. 🎥🎬🕯️

Appreciate the love from Voice Tribune 🖤🍁🎃 Excited to dive into the edit for Tales of the Macabre. 🎥

Hey, we filmed a movie. 🎥 Time for post (& coffee). ☕️

🎬 Tales of the Macabre—what a ride. My first time directing, and I couldn’t have asked for a better crew. Every single person showed up with heart, talent & the best energy. Together we made something dark, beautiful, and unforgettable.

Stay tuned, bc now we’re off to post. 🖤🕯️🍁

Tales of the Macabre… 13 days out 🎥🩸🕯️

35 days to go… 🎥

Currently being haunted by this shot list, but honestly learning a ton & having a blast with my AD dream team. 🎃🎥🕯️49 days to set!

Thank you!

The countdown begins… I’m directing my first short film this October in Kentucky. 🕯️ Had the first sit-down with my ADs & it’s already feeling spooky in all the best ways.

What an amazing weekend with fellow filmmakers and writers. Thank you, @renegadefilmfest.bsky.social for the most perfect weekend and for selecting ReddeR as a finalist. 🔪🩸 Can’t wait to attend next year!

I was hoping for this one! ✨

I’ve been working on another rewrite for ReddeR. Rewriting can seem daunting, but I look at it as a way of adding color and texture to the “painting.” It’s the fun part—where horror writers can make the scares more masterful and poetic… and the tension more heightened.

Tales of the Macabre is a semifinalist at this year’s Midwest Weirdfest! 🕯️🎃🎙️

Next round announcement is in March.🤞
