Hi, tumblr! It’s been a while, but I have news. I’m a showrunner now!

I have co-created a brand new series called Poly that’s being funded through Seed&Spark. It’s about a polyamorous triad that moves to the suburbs. It’s and LGBTQ Comedy, but I need your help to get it done. 

We live in a world where you have to fund the content you want to see. I don’t agree with it, but I want to make it happen. Independent filmmaking allows for intersectional feminist content to get made. By contributing to our campaign, you’re showing queer film has an audience, that audience has a little money, and advertisers can make money. Funding queer projects allows for more to be made. This is one step of many. Let’s represent some non-heteronormative values, okay?

Please become a follower on Seed&Spark, contribute to our campaign, or reblog this. Seriously, everything helps.

The teaser trailer for Politically Correct is finally here. We hope you find this as absurd as we find everyday responses similar to White Tyson’s.

The film stars Laura Kirk, Gregory Leigh Nielsen, Becca Huerter, Markisha Rangel, Caiel Noble, and Eric Shin. Directed by Savannah Rodgers.

Happy International Trans Day of Visibility! 

Here are ten things we can do to show support for our transgender brothers and sisters today (and every day).

Here is the alternative key art for Politically Correct (2015). 

A trailer is coming soon. We’re sincerely hoping it will be coming to a film festival near you.

Here is some of the test footage we shot for Politically Correct

Politically Correct (2015)

A group of television writers try so hard to be politically correct that it impedes their writing process.

At last… Here is the key art for my short film, Politically Correct

As someone passionate about issues of diversity and representation in media, I thought it would be fun to write a short with my friend about writers who try too hard to give representation to various marginalized groups. Hopefully, it will be coming to a film festival near you.

The Listeners (2015)

The Listeners (2015) is the new documentary feature film from Wimray Films exploring the role of crisis phone lines in mental health care and the many people, often volunteers, who answer calls. The film follows a cohort of new volunteers at the Headquarters Counseling Center in Lawrence, Kansas, who undergo rigorous training to staff crisis lines. The Listeners will deliver a powerful and uplifting message of acceptance, altruism, and empathy.

This was neat.

Project Not Asking For It: University of Kansas

Rape and sexual assault are the only crimes where the victims are blamed. No matter how someone is dancing, what they are wearing, how much they have had to drink, or their gender, nobody is asking for it. Let’s make our world a better place.
