Green Belt Warrior – A Jon Magram Short Film

Wednesday, October 12th, 2011

This short film was a summer 2010 collaboration — Jon Magram wrote and directed with Robbie Benson behind the camera, and Jeff Benson in front of it. Robert Krakower and Jon produced the film assisted by a crew of top notch SJSU film & animation students, and of course starring a talented cast of actors. This production was one of the funnest to work on because of everyone involved, so thanks to all of them!

A 17-year old martial arts student named Jeffrey struggles to earn his green belt, but in order to do so he must first beat 13-year old Jad in a sparring match.

Elliot Kane – Wins BEST PICTURE @ SJSU (CMF 2010)

Saturday, October 2nd, 2010

This is quite possibly our final entry for Campus Movie Fest 2010.

elliotkanebestpicWe wanted to do a mystery/film noir with Elliot Kane. This is what came out. Enjoy!

Big thanks to everyone involved! Special thanks to Steve Campos from Fangamer for doing the special effects.

We managed to win Best Picture at SJSU, which entitled us to an ipod, final cut studio 3, and admission to the international grand finale in spring 2011. So CMF is going very well for us this year! Thanks y’all!

Be sure to rate, comment, and favorite Elliot Kane! We’re very pleased with this short and would love to hear what you all think. …So pleased in fact, that Jeff wants to create a feature length Elliot Kane film noir one day.

Vigorade CMF update & new shorts!

Friday, January 29th, 2010
Hello world! I just realized we never posted the results from the CMF regionals this year. So down to brass tacks.
We didn’t win anything; however, we were part of the top 16, so that means we’ll be going to the international finale again this summer!
Speaking of the CMF international finale: Here are two old movies, one of which was made during our trip to Los Angeles last year for CMF.

Calvin (An Elliot Kane Overload)

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Recently we put the finishing touches on “Calvin,” the project we spent the summer writing and filming. Although Calvin may not be our best work, it’s nevertheless an achievement for us. We’d like to thank everyone who helped us make it, because we couldn’t have done it without you.

At a restaurant, Calvin runs into a girl he’s liked since high school and decides to order a milkshake for her; unfortunately, he doesn’t have enough money.”
