- Created remotely during the COVID-19 Pandemic, Rider University students Victoria Kreutzer, Shannin Kavanagh, Morgan Nash and Victoria Francesca, in collaboration with local indie rock artist Danny Parente, bring forth "World Unphased - Official Music Video". Shot on cameras, phones and with the help of our family and friends, us 4 dancers were able to bring the theme of Danny's song World Unphased to life. We are constantly stuck in the rushing "hustle" culture and trying to break free, chasing things that we think will bring us self-worth. That is what Victoria Kreutzer's choreography expresses as it echoes the powerful lyrics within the song. Our summer 2020 was spent creating this piece, and it was such a joy. I hope you enjoy "World Unphased - Official Music Video", Official Selection of the London Music Video Festival 2021. Thank you.

- Ceil and Enis are a happy if wacky female couple until giant baby son Junior (who sports a mustache but fits in his crib just dandy) develops a fondness for hot dogs and other symbols of manliness (along with many things edible, phallic or not) and decides to bust out of his confining crib to raid the fridge and avenge his overly protective mothers. A high camp low drag tongue in cheek lesbian chicken murder comedy which references everything from other campy classics (John Waters, Kenneth Anger) to the likes of Hitchcock and Sirk. Cheesy fun. (Note: this is put here so folks don't continue to review a DIFFERENT film called Junior by a fellow named Jim Henly--so hey! this is NOT the same Junior)
- The untold story of Iranians who struggle against Iran's oppressive regime, culminating in the global cry for human rights after the June 14th election.
- The city and the snow-covered forest represent polarized elements. The identity of that which is represented, however, remains ambiguous. The thematic form of the film leads to a new intangible perspective, wherein a multiplicity of possible perspectives and meanings lead to a single concept on the horizon. It is a silent narrative which becomes a "trance" film. The core concept is built upon the idea of a constantly oscillating shift between two poles, much like the harmonic motion of a guitar string. The identity of positive and negative, or of each of the two opposites, is constantly changing. However, all parallel lines converge as they meet the horizon of human perception.
- In the form of a short film tone poem, this unrequited love story follows a Boy (who may or may not be a literal or metaphorical ghost) as he longs for and dreams of another boy named Don, who for one reason or another (whether it's the fact that they live in separate dimensions, or the fact that there's simply just a lack of interest) doesn't love him back.
- Forest, an ambitious, naïve young "auteur" sets out to make his very own Citizen Kane, slated to premiere at the next Cannes Film Festival.

However, as the shoot goes on and the on-set complications delve deeper into its never-ending rabbit hole, the mockumentary itself seemingly begins to peel away the multiple layers of reality.
