In The Can: 'Body Image' Wraps NJ Shoot

Last week, during a one-day shoot in Woodland Park, NJ, we shot a new horror short film called Body Image. This is a different kind of film for me: very short runtime (approx. 2 minutes), one location, one actor, and no dialogue.

We had a great cast and crew! We worked with a skeleton crew for this small shoot and everyone worked so well as a team to cover the many roles needed.

I worked again with producer Matt Garland and cinematographer Ian Choplick -- our fourth film now as a team -- and we assembled a talented crew to create the look and feel for this film.

A big thank you to each of our cast and crew for their dedication, hard work, and artistry -- and a special shout-out to our actor Jocelyn Vammer and FX makeup artist Ashley Thomas for working with me to create Abby, our single character in Body Image.

You can follow our progress as we complete the film via our City Kid Films pages on Facebook and Twitter. And thank you for your continued support!
