Director Statement

So this was my first attempt at a "big" film that I made to end my first semester as a film student. It was the most preparation and production work I had done up to that point. I've always been a fan of 80's action movies, good and bad, and hoped to create a fun world where I can recreate that magic. Sprinkle in a little inspiration from my high school teacher's home videos he made as a kid and you got yourself "Run, Boy."
