Wow. We won! Thank you to @therussobrothers @agbofilms @order_isda and the Italian American Filmmaker Forum for believing in our movie. It was quite the whirlwind over the last six months making this film and I’m endlessly grateful for the chance to do it, for @kaelafrancesca and @karagmiller and the cast and crew that went above and beyond to help make it happen. St. Joseph coming to the world, soon.

Please swipe to enjoy a video of my grandma (the inspiration for it all) packing 100 meatballs to feed our cast and crew.

Very excited and very very honored to have been selected as a grant recipient for the 2025 Russo Brothers Italian American Filmmaker Forum, for my next short film ST. JOSEPH. It’s a story about how tradition slips away from us as generations pass by, and also about breaking and entering into your old childhood home.

Huge thank you to @agbofilms, @therussobrothers and @order_isda for helping bring this project to life, and congrats to my fellow recipients @mellowluke, @adrianovalentiniproductions, @katerinamunis and @mastrotunes who surely have some amazing projects coming up.

In partnership with AGBO & Italian Sons and Daughters of America, RBIAFF awards five filmmakers a $10,000 production grant to make a short film based on a submitted concept that depicts and explores aspects of the Italian American experience.

What happens when you lug an old Arri SR1 and 100lbs of gear across 20,000 steps in Malibu creek state park (and beyond)? You get one music video for Two Chairs by @will.paquin

Here are some stills from that music video which I had the pleasure of directing and editing! Will created the original music for Peas, and @luciarinaldi.dp and I had two leftover roles of 16mm 500T from that shoot, so it was only right that we used it for this video. As always, shout out to film scanning hero @thom_kuo.

At long last, Peas is coming to LA! Very very excited to finally be screening our film at @prooffilmfestival presented by my favorite LA institution the @am_cinematheque.

A lot of very talented people put a lot of their very precious time and effort into this film, and I’m incredibly grateful to them all. None of this could have happened without the dedication of our producer Kaela Francesca and our director of photography, Lucia Rinaldi.

It would be impossible and annoying to name everyone that helped out along the way, but here’s a start:

Huge shout out to @thom_kuo for making shooting film possible, to @arri_rental, @kodak_shootfilm, @harborpictureco and @company_3 for their support, to everyone who donated to our crowdfunding campaign, to @kenzies_space for putting up with the madness that is making a film, and to my family for letting me take over their lives and homes for months on end in order to make this film happen. Aunt Shawnee, I’m sorry we started an electrical fire in your kitchen during the shoot.

At long last, Peas is coming to LA! Very very excited to finally be screening our film at @prooffilmfestival presented by my favorite LA institution the @am_cinematheque.

A lot of very talented people put a lot of their very precious time and effort into this film, and I’m incredibly grateful to them all. None of this could have happened without the dedication of our producer Kaela Francesca and our director of photography, Lucia Rinaldi.

It would be impossible and annoying to name everyone that helped out along the way, but here’s a start:

Starring @lexie_foley_official, Cristina Spina & Candy Troncone

Had a blast editing and producing this doc for @apocalypticaofficial featuring none other than @metallica themselves - shout out to @anna.moskowitz for bringing me on! Out now.

Finnish cello-metal band Apocalyptica revisits the music that started it all, 27 years later.
