Had the incredible opportunity to be one of six teams selected as part of the Fantastic Pitches. After weeks of hard work, we finally presented our pitch on the big stage in Austin, Texas to a jury of very talented filmmakers and were surprised to find out that not only did we win a prize of a free BlackMagic camera package provided by @fangoria , but that the jurors themselves created an additional prize on the spot because they loved the concept so much. So proud to announce that for our feature film American Vermin, we will now have Gore Verbinski, Catherine Hardwicke, Nicolas Curcio, and Kirby Gladstein as our mentors.
What an honor to be mentored by all of these amazing artists. We are so thrilled and can’t wait to get started!

Thank you so much to @jordanbastian_ , all of the wonderful folks at @chroma_presents , @fangoria, and @fantastic.fest for all of your support and having us be a part of such a special event. We’ll certainly remember this moment 🪳❤️

AMERICAN VERMIN won a prize at @fantastic.fest that the judges CREATED in deliberations…WHAT?!!! We just wanted to be in the room, we never expected to win anything. So when @catherinehardwicke announced we’d won a camera package from @blackmagicdesign (presented by @fangoria!) PLUS she and the other judges (Gore Verbinski and PLAY HOUSE’s @nicolascurcio and @kirbygladstein!!!) had decided to mentor us for a year, the sound that comes out of @theanniejacob’s lungs in this video (peep @_alexbock_’s adorable reaction) is what would have come out of mine if the announcement didn’t knock the wind right out of me. I think the judges were moved to enlist in the VERMIN army by our protagonist Lupe, a Latina asylum seeker and badass final girl ready to kick some U.S. Army ass as the setting reveals a much-needed history lesson. And if anyone’s not ready for Lupe…our mutant cockroaches will show them the way. 😈🪳

HUGE congrats to the winning team @joshfarnworth and @connnormartinn with their amazing terrifying evil dad getting revenge at a wedding project FATHER FIGURE! Those guys are so ready to deliver and I can’t wait to see the result of next year’s whirlwind.

This is truly the most otherworldly thing that has (and probably will ever) happen in my career! We are making this movie, and it’s gonna pack a gargantuan double-whammy punch of pure entertainment and potent social commentary due to the creative investment of all those above.

So much gratitude to @chroma_presents and @fantasticfest for creating this indie genre film rocket launcher. Thank you for making this happen @ahbracadabra, @edenbliss, @beverage_sam, and so many more. Thank you to @jordanbastian and Eden for your unwavering support and mentorship. We love you all and everything you’re doing for the indie genre community. You’re gonna save cinema!!!

Memory from last year shot on @cinestillfilm 50D that was given to me as a wrap gift by @tinxchan 🥹🙌✨

Been a while since I felt inspired to pick up my still camera. It was nice to get that feeling of inspiration back these past few months and shoot some frames that I’m really excited about 💫 I really missed it! Looking forward to capturing more moments this year 📸🎥 by @_alexbock_
