Maculate Conception, a video by Emmett Frisbee, 2003

Betty Hollingsworth aka "Squeege" was a children's performer. She became a mentor for me by showing many ways of creativity unknown to me. Her star lives on. This was my first 16mm film project. I was assisted by Lori Felker. Partial funding provided by a Pittsburgh Filmmakers First Works Grant.

Smilen Savov and Valentin, Bulgarian Domesticians in dialogue. This video was shot at the 9th and Penn parking garage. It was filmed by Emmett Frisbee and edited with Lori Felker, and her roommates Adam and Brad.

This film premiered at the 3 Rivers Film Festival on November 13, 2014 at the Regent Square Theater.

This video was made with cooperation from the staff at Washington Square apartments when I worked there as a valet parking attendant. Everything was shot with breaks taken to fetch the residents' cars. Special thanks to Pittsburgh Filmmakers.
