David Shane of O Positive wrote and directed this web short in which a man who died young appears as a ghost trying to console his grieving girlfriend. We see him follow her about at the office, on the bus, at the gym and her apartment.
He notes that it’s been two years since his death and that she deserves the chance to live and love again. However, she is oblivious and continues to lead a solitary, seemingly sorrowful life–that is, until a twist has our ghost taken slightly aback.
Tinygiant Signs Director Moriah Sawtelle
Female-owned production company Tinygiant has signed director Moriah Sawtelle. She joins as part of Tinygiant’s Next Big Thing incubator program, which is dedicated to nurturing emerging directorial voices.
Sawtelle’s directorial approach has been defined by Tinygiant as “melding engineering precision with an artistic vision that transforms constraints into creative potential.” A talented photographer as well, she brings a keen eye for composition and storytelling to her filmmaking. Her work spans collaborations with brands such as Starbucks, Delta, Cadillac, and Rémy Martin.
“There’s something magnetic about truth framed in a combination of whimsy and authorship,” said Sawtelle. “I love to reimagine reality--blending sub-genres, bending visual rules, and shaping stories that linger in the back of your mind long after you’ve seen them.”
Sawtelle’s recent work includes the Jameson Holiday campaign, a cinematic journey through the intimate warmth of the Jameson family living room; Rémy Martin’s campaign, where luxury meets playful surrealism; and "TWO Hotel--Between the Lines," a fashion film noir capturing the mystery of unreliable narrators within the striking aesthetic of the TWA Hotel.
