Presenting AMBER - my award winning new short film that is now online. A contained thriller that’s my most ambitious film yet.

We worked really hard on it, and I hope you guys like it.

Do share it if you do :)

This weekend is one of those rare moments that I truly believe is going to change the film industry and change it for the better.

Sam Raimi was 20 when he made The Evil Dead

David Lynch was 25 when he made Eraserhead

So why are someone people (jealous, loser millennials) now pretending Kane Parsons (20) and Curry Barker (26) are too young to be, and incapable of, directing a film?

Advice to young filmmakers:

1. Screenplays are the currency of all film business, so work on your writing skills.

2. The film business is built to cycle you out. Work hard every day to give it a reason not to.

3. Make the movies only you can or would make. That’s your voice.

Then. Put. Up. The. Money.

[Jordan Santacana 🇵🇷 🇨🇺 @JordanSantacana]

The beauty of short films is that they allow you to find your voice and discover ways to achieve your vision on such a low budget. Using Gen AI completely obliterates this important lesson.

Sorry, no you're still not 'doing the work'

[Zak @zakfilm]

It is no exaggeration to say The Zone of Interest might be the most defining film of our times

[Jack Cuthbert @JackCuthbert]

Fascinating because even the worst creative mind doesn't struggle for at least raw ideas. Ideas are the cheapest easiest thing and this prick can't even write down one before he's second guessing himself. Tech bros do not belong in the world of stories!

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

This silly little parody skit is infinitely more creative, funny, worthwhile, and impressive than every piece of AI slop content that's ever been generated, or will ever be generated

[Zac Thompson @ZacBeThompson]

I've said it before but it bears repeating:

If generative A.I. was capable of “revolutionizing” writing, art, film or music - it would’ve produced something of cultural value *already*.

Instead all its made is endless piles of derivative slop. It's a con. A big lie.

[Gabino Iglesias @Gabino_Iglesias]

Don’t know who needs to hear this, but finish that first draft. Seriously.

[Tom @tomvinall00]

Anyone considering a solo trip but second guessing themselves, seriously, do it. So, so good.

[Dudes Posting Their W’s @DudespostingWs]

The lead singer of 3 Doors Down, Brad Arnold, passed away today at 47 after a long battle with kidney cancer. Rest in peace to an incredible performer.

if I heard the clacking of someone’s keyboard during a movie I genuinely think I would spiral into an uncontrollable rage

[Will Neff @TheWillNeff]

It’s not “AI slop” because it looks horrible it’s slop because there’s no human creativity in it. Same reason tracing manga in elementary school didn’t make you an artist. It’s poor imitation masquerading as art, and it’s exhausting how many people can’t grasp that difference

[OpTic Methodz @Methodz]

Years later I still firmly believe that “Dark” would be a mainstream, unanimous top 5 show if it was natively English. One of my favorite shows of all time and a must watch if you haven’t seen (don’t be a dubbed be a subbed)

[Cody Dericks @codymonster91]

Two horror performances winning major acting awards, very very very cool

[mon @ClTYOFMON]

Your inability to consume media that you don’t personally relate to is preventing you from discovering some life changing art

[Dan @eleventhturning]

reminder for creative types:

to get to the work you're really proud of you have to write the bad song, make the ugly painting, write the mediocre story

perfection is the enemy, aversion to cringe is a limitation on your potential

[Zack Stentz @MuseZack]

People like this don't actually like movies, they just view them as an extension of their weird stan and anti-stan subcultures. It's diseased behavior.
