The Sound of Cicadas

The Sound of Cicadas was a film that I never intended to come out as well as it did. I wrote this film as a form of catharsis in order to help myself work through some trauma that I had accrued during my childhood and teenage years. Over the course of two semesters I worked with my peers to review and edit the script to perfection. Then with the help of those peers I was able to bring this film to life.

“Siblings, Jackson and Macey, have their first heart to heart while Jackson is going through a divorce with his wife, Keegan. Macey only being in her freshman year of college, largely can not liken her own experiences to that of her brother. Jackson knows this but is looking for someone that he feels he can trust to confess his sins to. Macey accuses Jackson of horrible things, though he continually denies everything.”

This film was shot digitally with dimensions of 16:9, and the date of completion was November 2021.

This film has not been accepted into any festivals as of right now.

The Sound of Cicadas was written, directed, and edited by myself. Cinematography is by Rowen Ren, and it was co-produced by myself and Taylor Middleton.
