I’m beyond thrilled to share a special project “Zeb’s Spider.” 🕷️ As one of the DP’s I had the joy of working with our adorable 6” collage-inspired star, Zeb, under the brilliant duo-direction of Alicia Eisen + Sophie Jarvis.
This experience was nothing short of magical. From the intricate details of filming and lighting miniatures to the unique rhythm and set etiquette, it opened my eyes to a whole new world of filmmaking. I can’t wait for you all to fall in love with Zeb too! Check out the magic! 🌈✨

Synopsis:
Inside the safe space of their basement apartment, Zeb fends off the bad luck of the outside world with an assortment of ritualized behaviours. But even in the most insular existence, destiny can unexpectedly drop in. What begins as a way of coping with an uninvited arachnid soon takes on a monstrous life of its own.
Spinning darkness and humour into a complex emotional web, Zeb’s Spider offers up a crucial lesson: face your fears or they just might eat you alive.
