    Secrets of the Theater

    This was a project that I started near the end of my college career. It’s a self-written, self-directed and self-recorded film that’s still currently in the works.
    Secrets of the Theater is a horror/investigation film about a detective finding out what the greed of a fame-hungry corpration can do, and how that greed becomes the inevitable death of the world as we know it. It explores topics such as a capitalist society, personal growth, corporate corruption, and the catalysts that shatter a man’s hopes and dreams into dust.

    You can watch the proof of concept - made entirely by me - with the link below.
