Director: Robert Cappelletto. Writers: Robert Cappelletto and H.P. Lovecraft. Cast: Barret Walz, Maurice McNicholas, Tom Lodewyck, Joyce Porter, and Mike Dobray. Fans of H.P. Lovecraft may be thrilled to find two tales rolled into one in Pickman’s Muse. Readers will find the character from “Pickman’s Model” tossed into the horrors found in “Haunter in the Dark.” In this movie, he is named Robert Pickman (Barret Walz) than Richard. The protagonist is a painter who loses his inspiration and desire to create. But one morning, the skies are alive with a beckoning golden vista with the tower of a dilapidated church speaking to him. Cinematographer Robert Cappelletto does an amazing job in making camera magic. He is like Picasso when considering how careful the hues and saturations work in the lighting of the cityscape and interior sets. To capture a golden sunrise really requires knowing how the video camera works.

Chicago – The festival premiere of a new film is a great day for a director, and Chris Folkens is celebrating his new short film, “Diversion,” with an opening at the 2010 Hollywood Film Festival on October 23rd. Diversion is a taut thriller shot all in Chicago, as great a valentine to the city as a well-done paranoid narrative.
Barret Walz and Doug James are featured in a telephone conversation on the streets of Chicago. As the the conversation gets more personal and dangerous, Walz ventures deeper into the depths of the city, a smart addition to a tense game of cat and mouse.
Director Chris Folkens has developed his craft through work in the advertising industry, and has worked on several high-end film and video projects. Diversion is a benchmark for the filmmaker, showcasing his technical and storytelling skills to perfection. His stated goal: “to impact my audience through dramatic, compelling and cinematic experiences.
