🎥🏆 A.W.A.R.E. Wins Best Cinematography at Highlands Horror Film Fest!

Huge congratulations to our incredible cinematographer Dave Carroll and gaffer Lou Blackmon for bringing such striking visuals and atmosphere to life. Their artistry and precision made every frame of A.W.A.R.E. pulse with tension, beauty, and dread — the kind of horror that lingers.

We’re so proud to see their work recognized at Highlands Horror Film Fest, and grateful to the festival for celebrating independent horror and the craft that makes it shine.

🔥 On to the next festivals: New Jersey Mystery, Crime & Horror Film Festival and Rehoboth International Film Festival — see you there!

We're thrilled to be in New York CineFest with THE NAMING OF THE THINGS! The Opening Night Rooftop Party was electric. Here with Jonathan Lipnick (actor), me (producer), Gadi Rubin (EP-writer-director-actor), and Juri Henley-Cohn (actor).

Crystal clear night so we had perfect views of the Empire State Building & Chelsea skyline. Festival founder/director Gustavo Sampaio and Natalia have been incredibly gracious!

For anyone in NYC, we screen Sunday, April 28, at 1:00 p.m. Tickets available here: https://www.newyorkcinefest.com/tickets
