You guys… I love my job. Why? Because I get paid to dream up concepts for short films.
I am very excited to present “The TDF Costume Collection (A Silent Movie.)” As the title suggests, it is a silent film about Theatre Development Fund’s super-awesome costume collection, which provides low-cost costume rentals to nonprofit productions across the country.
I wrote, directed, and produced this picture, and my talented friend Chris Bryan filmed, edited, and devised the cool visual flourishes.
The actors are all members of the TDF staff. Ginger Bartkoski plays “Ginger” and Stephen Cabral plays “Stephen Cabral.” The merry band of lunatics is played by Thomas Adkins, Sarah Aziz, Patrick Berger and Denyse Owens.
p.s. — Because a section of this video includes a voiceover, we also created a closed caption version. If you’d like to see it, go here.

Very cute! Loved the exaggerated old style silent movie acting, and the sudden jump to color was a nice touch.
I feel like there’s a Norma Desmond joke in here somewhere…
