Director’s reel.

My director’s reel. This is very much a “beta” and is constantly evolving, but it should give you some idea what I’m all about. (NOTE: A new version of my reel is coming Summer 2010. It will feature a lot of new footage and be in full 1080p HD.)

“Let It All Burn Down” 2nd festival acceptance (and other news)

The “Let It All Burn Down” video has been accepted to the Philadelphia Independent Film Festival and will be screened there in late June!

Also, stay tuned for news on the two projects I wrapped recently, and am currently editing:

“The Picnic,” a 10-12 minute dramatic short, and a little something I’m calling “Scenic Beach Fantasy in G (with Unicorn).”

Shot some footage yesterday.

It’s a preview of the teaser for the feature I want to make, based on the short I made a while ago.

Anyway, I’m pretty excited about how it came out, and I’ll post something soon.

First festival acceptance.

“Let it all burn down” just got its first of what I hope will be many festival acceptances. It’ll be showing at the SENE film festival in Providence, RI, in early April.

Thanks again to everyone who helped make the video happen. You can watch it here if you want.

A story for a contest. I did not win.

I fully acknowledge this is not very good. I like the story, but not the writing. At the time I hadn’t done any prose writing for a few years. This was for a Mcsweeney’s contest to finish story ideas left behind by F. Scott Fitzgerald.

based on premise: “There was once a moving-picture magnate who was shipwrecked on a desert island with nothing but two dozen cans of film..”

I.

There was once a moving-picture magnate who was shipwrecked on a desert island with nothing but two dozen cans of film.

“Not even fucking film anymore,” he told himself as the South Pacific surf pounded him under again and again.

“All fucking digital now,” he complained to no-one as he found a safe landing place on the rocky shore of the island, using a technique he had once seen on a television survival show hosted by a man named “Grizzly.”

And then later (he remembered as somehow he pulled himself up onto the jagged rocks), Read the rest of this entry »

Script.

This is still somewhat rough. I also didn’t spellcheck it yet.

Anyway, here it is. If you read it, let me know what you think. Rest assured more drafts are forthcoming.

Taking this offline until the next draft.

Hi.

My name is Ryan. I'm a writer and filmmaker. This is my blog. Right now, updates are sporadic because I'm working on two new film projects and finishing off a feature script, while trying to get my music video "Let It All Burn Down" into more festivals.

This is meant to be a professional blog, so there won't be any ramblings about how my day is going. If you want that (and why would you, really?), you can find me on Twitter. There will be sketch and film scripts, video clips, fiction, and sometimes travel writing and photography. I am interested in a lot of things, but writing and directing feature films is my long-term focus. I'm currently seeking representation (agent and/or manager), both as a writer and a director.

I'm also looking for people to collaborate with on a variety of things. If it seems like we'd be on the same page in some way, let me know. I don't want to get too specific; this isn't a Craigslist ad.

Email me at 20thstreetfilms[at]gmail.com if you have any questions or comments.
