SAFE DISTANCE NOW ONLINE

The full 4 and a half minute short film, SAFE DISTANCE, is available to watch on YouTube for free!

Synopsis: Kavanagh (Adam P. Cray) has worked the last few years side by side with New England's most dangerous hitman Angel (Jonathan Hart). Angel has discovered Kavanagh's secret and now they're both in the cold woods alone. No living soul for miles. No more bullets in Kavanagh's pistol. 
 

Writer/Director Adam P. Cray has partnered with New Bedford producer Lance Gunberg for this short thriller featuring Jonathan Hart of Providence, Rhode Island. The short was produced in four hours in December of 2016 in the woods of Westport, Massachusetts. The music score was composed by Brandon Moore of Los Angeles, California.

"You're a cop. You're a traitor. I know where your family lives."

FINISHING UP

The scores for Street Runners and Safe Distance are complete, and the two projects are in the final stages of post production.

The web series, Street Runners, will stream online, and the short film, Safe Distance, will be ready for viewing on New Bedford, MA cable access in the coming months.

UPCOMING PROJECT

Brandon will soon be collaborating again with writer/director Kent Bernhard on a new action short film which is in post production now. 

Kent Bernhard's thoughts on working with Brandon: 

"Brandon Moore recognizes that the score is a character in your film, every bit as important as your actors and your lighting. He takes great care to set the tone and fit the mood of each moment of composition expressing truest essence of feeling in each scene."
