For many years now I've enjoyed making short films as a hobby. Many of you know that my husband Woody Pittman is a very funny Comedy Magician so it seemed natural that we combine our talents and create silent movies together. There's something I really enjoy about telling a story through film. With the exception of the first film we made (Shuffleboard King) I also created original music for the background. The films all run about three minutes and I've decided to post them on You Tube. Clicking the buttons will pop open their respective You Tube page and begin loading the film. If the buttons aren't working you can also go to www.youtube.com and put my name in the search engine. Enjoy! |

Shuffleboard KingThis is the first film we made while on a cruise ship in the Caribbean. I've thought about replacing the music with something original, but Leroy Anderson's "Bugler's Holiday" just seems to work so well. I especially enjoyed creating and editing together the 'trick shots'. |

Blood DayOriginally I used another famous recording for the soundtrack to this short. But at the time I was also experimenting with a multi-track recording device. Having already edited the film together, I reinterpreted the original music, playing all the instruments and using my multi-track. I think most jazz fans will be able to guess what the original recording was when they hear my twist on it! |

Sock MonkeyLos Angeles Union Station was a beautiful place to shoot. We got there really early in the morning and finished the film before the commuters arrived. I had just made this sock monkey from a craft kit and named him "Tofu". –Seemed like a pretty good excuse to make a film! |

ChristmasThis film uses a new Christmas song that I wrote and recorded with Clint Baker. I wanted to send out a little video Christmas card for the holidays and this gave us an excuse to decorate early! |
