Got some time on your hands?

Posted at 6:30 p.m. - Monday, November 10

Allow me introduce you to one of my new favorite local filmmakers: Joe Avella.  Joe gave me a shout via geek-mail about a month ago and has been sharing his film shorts with me.

Here's what he had to say about himself: 'My name is Joe Avella and I'm an independent filmmaker. I've lived in or around Chicago all my life. Most of my videos are comedies. The first movie I ever made was a zombie move. Hopefully I'll make another one someday. I'm also in a sketch comedy duo called Teenager of the Year. We're legit.'

You can check out his web site to learn more about him, but I wanted you to check out one of his short films: Timecop 2010.  (Geek credits to the viewer who can tell me where the sfx were lifted from.)

If you are a local film maker who'd like me to check out your stuff, drop me a line!

I'm glad to hear you've discovered him, too. He puts alot of energy into his films - one day he'll have a big one!
