Director Statement

Red Creek is a short murder mystery film, meant to be watched multiple times; each, following a different suspect's actions. It is a film that was done with a high degree of creativity, as it was shot almost entirely against a green screen, and all the forest backgrounds were hand drawn, and meticulously composited in.
