Just the beginning.

SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT — Actor and Sound Mixer OREN LEVIN

A brilliant musician and even better human being, Oren was cast to play a very important role in this film (he’s more than just a man with a camcorder, hint-hint!). He brought depth, artistry and an innocence to the role as only he could, and also later served as our expert sound mixer, putting the finishing touches on the film. It was, indeed, his roof(!) which he graciously lent us, that served as the backdrop for our now-iconic opening scene, as well.

A Brooklyn-based music producer, songwriter and professional sound mixer, Oren has famously performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and continues to make new music and serenade the world with the voice of an angel — something that can only be described as a combination of Fergie and Jesus. He’s a star, and we are grateful he graced this movie with his many talents.

SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT (Snow-Day Edition): Cinematographer LIZA LIPSKAIA

If anyone was going to film this movie and make a stunning cinematic masterpiece with just an iPhone and a janky gimbal, it was our seasoned DP Liza Lipskaia. Patient, discerning and extremely passionate about her craft, she took the time to storyboard out the entire 40-page script, bringing an expert level of artistry to every shot. When we were crunched for time, she moved like lightning and when we needed a never-before-attempted roof camera stunt (see video above), she executed it to perfection.

A New York-based director and editor, Liza is a professional and her work spans the world of tv commercials, music videos, food advertising and branded content. Her past clients include U2, Swarovski, MoMA, BVLGARI, Louis Vuitton, Tommy Hilfiger and more! I still can’t believe she agreed to do this project with a beginning director, and she made it so SO beautiful. Thank you, Liza!

(Holiday) SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT: Producer SYDNEY SIMONCINI

An unparalleled producer, Sydney believed in this film when no one else did. She brought a kindness, passion, intelligence and artistic taste that every filmmaker hopes and dreams for. From helping to develop the script, to assembling the crew, to location-scouting (and then location-lending), and even filming scenes on her OWN camcorder, the Roughly Tyler team was so incredibly lucky to have her doing it ALL on this production.

A filmmaker and educator by day, a Survivor champion and celebrity tattoo-artist by night, I’m not sure where she found the time to work on this, but we’re grateful she did! Sydney also makes a quick cameo herself in the film - playing the role of a producer - which she obviously crushed. Thank you, Sydney!!

SUNDAY SPOTLIGHT: Writer/Producer/Actor - SAM POZNAK

Sam was the very first person to join this project, and was instrumental in its creation. Not only did he help develop the script with Evan, but he served as one of the head producers, forming the production team, location-scouting, casting, slating and later acting himself(!) in the film in multiple scenes.

An accomplished filmmaker in his own right, Sam is now continuing to produce and direct projects in Tampa, FL. We miss him, wish him all the best, and feel extremely lucky to have had him as part of the Roughly Tyler team.
Thank You, Sam!

“It’s a movie about a guy making a movie who enters the movie himself to act in the main role.”

Thanks to everyone who made this movie a reality and who brought it across the finish line with me!
