    This concept feels so specific to the Philippines I explored this concept too in my own Thesis film which funnily enough also has a supernatural world I'm glad it seems to be a popular concept in Filipino storytelling

    I made this #Thesis #Film back in 2011. It’s still as true today as it was then. It was low of low budget. I think I spent $7k making it in gear, set design, pay, & food for crew. Plus blood, sweat, tears, & collaboration. Please, give it a watch, let me know your thoughts. vimeo.com/152742471

    Access builds filmmakers. Today I joined Montclair State's Thesis 27 Cohort to talk NJ's entertainment business and help seniors with locations for their thesis films. Questions welcome, doors open. New Jersey film is not slowing down.

    This short, directed by Austin Taylor, is a 2013 UNCSA Thesis Animation film. I had the link to an article about this short sitting in my to-read pile since 2014. The embedded video on that page no longer worked, but I was able to track down one on YouTube.
