Director Statement

"Cock Robin," is my 3rd and longest short Sag film, at 33 minutes and shot in 4k. It's also my first comedy/romance/farce, quirky and fast paced, and in the category of an art house film. This group of actors was a wonderful ensemble cast, and it was also a joy to work with the costume designer Maggie Raywood, 1st AC Angelica Jacinto and colorist Jasper Kim. I hope you enjoy Cock Robin.
