Director Statement

This was an ambitious first project for myself, inspired by John Landis "An American Werewolf in London". This was originally written as a full feature but due to timing and this project being completely self funded I shortened the story to the best of my ability. This short was filmed with two cameras, natural lighting, and was shot mainly here in San Jose, and some small portions in San Francisco, as well as Emeryville CA. I wanna thank my talented cast for very patiently waiting to see all the hard work. Believe it or not but this film was shot and constructed by only two people, myself and my cameraman Jalen Francis who helped film, edit and construct this awesome story and I have to say I do believe its impressive for what two guys can do. So a thank you to him for his help, I am very proud to share this short story with you all! Enjoy!!!
