    Michael Reed's Interests
GeneralActing, Film, Graphic design and illustration, CGI, Gaming. I cherish good friends. Conan is my hero--that's the barbarian...not O'brian.My favorite color is R:0 G:0 B:255. I love quality libations. I love to laugh. I love to make other people laugh. I love laughing so hard I cry. I'm Libra through and through. My favorite actor is Christopher Walken, because he's wierd and wonderful. I dislike that people judge my acting ability by my look. I can play guitar, piano, and congas enough to fully enjoy myself, and annoy others. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy catigorizes Earth in two words: Mostly Harmless. Lastly, but most importantly, loving my all-around amazing, one-of-a-kind fiancee Sarah Nicklin, who has touched me to my core and changed previous notions and ideals. Hey, what's that over there...

   Michael Reed's Blurbs
About me:
Born in Chandler, Arizona, in 1976. The year of the Dragon. Chosen by the Gods to be the runt in a traveling band of gypsies. Spent his youth in Arizona, Texas, Virginia, Germany and the cold university towns of Michigan. Early years marked by a mammoth collection of GI-Joes, He-Man figures, a Huffy bike, a wardrobe full of hand-me-down rayon shirts, and the perfect, concrete hair-wave. Bestowed with honors by his high school theatre classes and, it should be noted, the recipient of several competitive acting awards. To his dismay, these stellar achievments were overshadowed by a few lowly weekend football games. Vowing revenge and armed with a video camera, Michael took refuge in a series of epic claymation movies and one-man garage performances which await an official PentaWorks release. Travelled the byways America in a cramped yet homey pull-camper, hoping to find himself, but instead found heavy drinking and several great locations for deliberate isolation. Took a brief repose in Michigan, where he studied theater, graphic illustration, and design while starring as a book store guy, a temp, a waiter, and a painter.

Currently a resident of Riverside, Rhode Island.

--TRAILERS--

BEYOND THE DUNWICH HORROR --Scorpio Film Releasing, directed by Richard Griffin.

*Winner for "Best Editing" at the 2008 48hr Film Fesival--Rhode Island*

NUN OF THAT --a 48hr film project done by Scorpio Film Releasing. I really enjoyed working on this production. Each team was given the same prop, character, and line of dialog. And each team selected a genre from a hat. Our genre was 'holiday.' As soon as we knew our genre, we had 48hrs to write, shoot, and edit.

LIVING DEAD WORLD TRAILER --zombies rise from the grave and consume the flesh of the damned. A solid indie-Zed movie starring your's truly.

Living Dead World

ECSTATIC NOISE--a secret society of people all living together are brainwashed by a sexy DJ and his pill-pushing Gestapo. Only one man can infiltrate the household and stop the madness. Me. Directed by Javier Dampierre.

------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------

*BELOW* are two shorts from "PAUSE & RECORD"--a DVD compilation of home-movies shot from 1991-1995. Bare in mind, these shorts are shot on VHS, are all edited on the fly (hence the title 'pause & record'), and all dialog is completely improvised.

"The Bad Mime", from the home-movie compilation "PAUSE & RECORD".

Something to know about 'The Bad Mime': prior to recording video, we walked around the house with a tape recorder, and recorded a string of sound effects representing a series of events. Then after only three rehearsals, we recorded the video as I listened to the audio playback live as I performed.

"The Real Estate Sale", from the home-movie compilation "PAUSE & RECORD."

Pentaworks --my brother Anthony Penta's film company. Regardless our blood-tie, I'm not ashamed to declare his work phenomenal. I've always enjoyed working with him when I get the chance.

Michael,

Catherine is wearing a kitty costume, I'm trying to reattach her tail. As for the camera, it didn't look like a matchbook. Hope all is going well and hope you can make it back to town soon.
