Friends, for the last four months, I have been working on this wonderful Catholic collaborative filmmaking project called 8 Beats and we are having a launch party on Sep 16 from 4:00-7:00pm at Apanas Coffee & Beer in the Domain.
There are 8 teams around the US and Canada making 8 different short films, each of them inspired by a different Beatitude. These films are films that go to the heart of the person, that deal with people's struggles: struggles of faith, of persecution, of seeing their own beauty. And the people involved in making these films have heart, passion, skill, and drive. We aren't even to pre-production yet and the process has already been so rewarding and fulfilling.

I am line producer/production manager for the South Region, or Team Texas, as we affectionately call it. Our short film, "2AM Lullaby", written by David Kang and directed by Sean Schiavolin, is based on the Beatitude, "Blessed are the pure of heart, for they shall see God." (Dave and Sean are the men behind the Humanum series)
Please come to our launch party, support our film, and have a great time meeting some really passionate, really faithful Catholic artists! Facebook event here and Indiegogo Page here
2AM Lullaby Synopsis
"At an old theatre in Austin, TX, a burlesque performer sings a nightly lullaby to herself after the glitter has faded and the makeup has been wiped off. A night janitor from far away secretly hears her song as he works alone. A chance encounter between them will forever change how they see their lives."
