The Oracle's Wife
A biopic about what it takes to love someone who wants to change the future. Based on the non-fiction biography of M. King Hubbert, who foresaw the end of civilization as we know it.
Dark Iris
Dark Iris is a horror anthology series that gives multi-cultural mythologies a modern speculative twist and a Deadpool-ish sense of humor. Think a blend of Tales from the Crypt and Relatos salvajes (Wild Tales), a popular Argentine-Spanish black comedy anthology film with themes of violence and vengeance. In development with Campanario Entertainment and Mucho Mas Media.
Welcome
An interactive experience that speaks to the immigrant experience in a playful way that contains deeper lessons about about how we welcome those who are different from us, or don't. Have completed a conceptualization animation with funding from Telefilm, and are now looking at developing this as a children's series.
