SALT - A Neo-Noir Drama Film
Logline “Salt” is a Neo-Noir Drama about a selfish, stingy and wealthy man, obsessed with accumulating money and power, when he loses his business and family, he must confront the truth about himself or fall into an even darker fate. Synopsis After receiving his inheritance, a young man, Othman, becomes obsessed with money. When his business is about to become bankrupt, he steals money from his family’s account, and his family resents him. He loses his family, and his business collapses. Now homeless, he embraces sharing and kindness with an interviewer and avoids falling into an even darker fate. He learns that life isn’t about money, life is about sharing kindness with others. I found the inspiration to discuss wealth disparity by seeing the homeless people in Savannah, GA sitting in parks where I first attended college. Some people have been trying to help the poor communities for years, but many people ignore it. People with the means to help need to learn the value of compassion, love, and helping others who need hope. They should do something, and poor communities can significantly benefit from their contribution. SALT is a film that shows the dark side of what can happen to rich people who are obsessed with accumulating money and power and allows audiences to realize the truth about themselves. © 2022 ACPictures.

Leather Bound (DCC Student Film)
This film was done by a group of COM 211 of Dutchess Community College students who made this film. I was a first camera assistant and visual effects supervisor for the entire film.

He makes shoes and has an elderly assistant, Walter, who happens to be sick or dying. So Walter hires Anna to take over. Despite Lucius's disagreement or arrogant, Anna learns from Walter's will about him and Lucius. To Lucius, he despise pretty girls because true beauty is painful.

This song reminds me of her. I'll never forget her. Not only my cousin died, everyone's love ones too.
