May the 4th be with you all!! Some fantastic Star Wars Day News: ‘Frankie and Jude: Star Wars - The Search for Jude’ was accepted into the FantaSci Short Film Fest! Unfortunately they had to cancel the in person event, BUT they will be live streaming their awards :) Thank you FantaSci for staying safe during this time, and we are so grateful to be a part of your fest this year! . . #starwars #starwarsday #maythe4thbewithyou #maytheforcebewithyou #theriseofskywalker #indiefilm #womeninfilm #fantascishortfilmfest #comedy #womenincomedy #shotoniphone #shotonsmartphone #frankiesfreakingout #oviedo #florida #filmfestival (at Oviedo Mall) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_xk52eFNsD/?igshid=dldelb0e985l

Here we go, or since we’re supposed to do this ‘alone’ maybe I should say, ‘here I go’ 😬 #Repost @domdom77 with @get_repost ・・・ Our new logo! Welcome to the Home Alone Film Challenge!

Following the ‘Safer at Home’ ordinance can make you go a little stir crazy... today I ventured out to grab some takeout at one of my fave restaurants in LA! (You can only eat pasta and sandwiches so many times) Thanks for the nice change and the delicious meal!! ... and John Wick... thank you for John Wick . #localbusiness #supportlocal #localrestaurant #yummy #foodie #lafoodie #burbank #burbankpub #pub #johnwick #covid_19 #socialdistancing #fightcovid19 (at The Burbank Pub) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-BE-9olkYj/?igshid=1wgxzuq5kjs8k

The Frankie and Jude team are feeling a little bittersweet today. Our first festival screening of 2020, the fabulous @outlantacon fest, had to cancel their event in lieu of COVID-19. We have been fans of this LGBTQ festival since their support of the very first Frankie and Jude film, and we are sending them love and virtual high-fives🙌🏽💜 In the meantime, you can watch “The Search for Jude” from your Quarantine Couch—because when a friend goes missing, the online community is here to help...while inside😜 Link in bio💫 #FrankieAndJude #StarWars #FanFilm #quarantinewatchparty #outlantacon #comedy #comedyvideos #starwars #fanfilm #starwarsfan #womeninfilm #onlinemovies #jjabrams #disney #badrobot #quarantine #covid_19 #screenwriting #sourpunch (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B97P99glm-V/?igshid=zmp9kvusyyqq

Jude went out for sour punch. He never came back. Hours before “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” premieres, Jude goes missing. Now, it’s up to Frankie and her closest allies to find her best friend before it’s too late. Or at least until the next showing. Written & Directed by Amy Baklini & Lauren Chavez-Myers Produced by Amy Baklini, Lauren Chavez-Myers, Jordan Ancel, & Richard Galli. Also, the whole darn thing was shot on a smartphone. Enjoy, you lovely people you!

What a crazy wild ride. If you would have told me that within a span of 10 months I’d write 3 features, I’d say you were crazy! Granted, they’re all first drafts, but I still can’t believe it. This last feature I wrote in 10 days. 10 DAYS!!! I’m so excited to send this off to my producers and am anxiously awaiting feedback :) Thank you so much @locowithlolo for recommending me! I love you lady! And a huge thank you to my teachers and friends at UCLA TFT for your support.

Huge congrats to the ‘Iris’ team! Thank you so much for letting me be a part of this remarkable film 🎞 ❤️ #Repost @rebarbara06 with @get_repost ・・・ HUGE news for my feature film, IRIS... We’ve been invited to screen as part of the 2019 SF IndieFest @sfindiefest and the 2019 London International Filmmaker Festival. SO proud to share this beautiful film with the world. Checkout our teaser trailer and information on upcoming film festivals on our NEW website (www.iris-movie.com) * * * * This film changed my. It taught me more about myself than any other creative project I’ve ever taken on. It taught me my limits and what I am personally capable of. It’s proof positive that when you believe in something and have the drive to see it through the universe will meet you right where you’re at. Seriously...ANYTHING is possible for all of us. You just have to know the what...not the how. * * * About Iris: The entire project was filmed with a four person crew, shot over two states...all based on a story outline. The dialog within the scenes was completely improvised by the actors. I’m humbled when I think about the the friends and family who stepped up to make this film a reality. Thank you and I love each and every one of you. Ryan and I couldn’t have done this without your heart, time, and talent. ❤️ Special thanks to Rochelle Turri (Ryan’s beautiful wife) and Brandon Scott Jensen. Brandon, I don’t have the time to list ALL of the amazing things you did on this project. You were an angel. Thank you for being a friend. Thank you for believing in us and forcing me to let you help us make this film😂😘🤗 Love you! #fate * * * #helloworldthisisiris #iris #featurefilm #improv #actor #actorslife #producer #femalelead #yourewrapped #indiefilm #anamorphiclense #cinematography #femaledriven #socialmediaobsessed #thetroll #outofthedarkness #filmfestival #writer #director #filmmaker #filmmaking #womeninfilm #nmfilm #nmtrue https://www.instagram.com/p/BrsisAQg7fU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1pal46r1ybq58
