Cleveland independent film makers got the spot light with the premieres of four locally produced films on November 4 at the Atlas Lakeshore Cinemas. The films share in common many cast and crew members that have collaborated as the J-Crew film group. The films were Director Jason Wang's "Project E.1337 Alpha," Director Johnny Wu's "Wu Xia - A Martial Arts Tango" and "T.R.A.C.E. A Doctor Who Fan Film," and Keith Collins II's "Project Die Happy." All four films were loaded with action, martial arts, high production values, and impressive cast and crew talents.
About 300 enthusiastic attendees enjoyed the film screenings and spent time afterwards with the directors for a Q&A session. Jason Wang started announced that his film Project E.1337 was just signed for a distribution deal in China based on just the short trailer for the film. Johnny Wu also thanked the many cast and crew that were part of the films and especially those that were part of two, or three, or even all four films.
The following day, the cast and crew had a "Wrap Party" at Creative House Studios to celebrate the premieres and all the hard work that went into the films. The films were on display during the party along with other J-Crew short films including "Catch Them All," "Tainted," Kill World," and "Sabotage." Already, the film makers are planning and working on future film projects. With the many talents available in Cleveland, anything is possible.
