If you know anything about me, then you’re already aware that I spent most of 2024 trying to finish my much-anticipated documentary about Hank’s Saloon, a legendary Brooklyn dive bar with a long and notorious past, which was forced to close forever in 2018.

Thanks to a very successful crowdfunding campaign, I was able to finally prioritize this project. And I am thrilled to report that now (finally!) the Hank’s Saloon documentary is nearly complete. The final film is currently in post-production, with the goal of premiering at festivals in 2025.

You can find out more about the bar, and this project, here.

I’m proud to announce that “Nyctophobia”, the surreal feature-length art film that I worked as Editor on from 2021 through 2023, just won the award for Outstanding Editing from the Art of Brooklyn Film Festival.

Special thanks goes out to the director, Seayoon Jeong, as well as everyone else who helped make this truly unique project happen.

The crowdfunding campaign for my Hank’s Saloon movie has been an astounding success! Thanks to the many, many generous people who participated in this, the feature documentary is now slated to be completed sometime in 2024!

In the meantime, you can find out more about the movie—and get a few sneak peeks at the final product—by following the Hank’s Saloon Movie project on Facebook and Instagram.

To everyone who gave money, donated prizes, lent emotional support, or just helped me spread the word about this fundraiser: THANK YOU! None of this could have happened without your help.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a movie to go edit…
