Director Statement

The film Crypto was a 48 Hour Film Project film. These are high tension productions where directors and actors have to do some intense work. This story came directly from my asking the question; What would it look like if somebody truly believed in monsters? and if sometimes they were real?
The final result is a little rough, but the feel is exactly what I was looking for. I am currently in post production on a follow-up feature film set in this same universe.
