ASSISTANT DIRECTOR, Strings
For the next three months, Tom Suhler will be serving as Assistant Director on the set of Strings, a feature-length film shooting in Austin, Texas. Strings tells the story of a troubled pianist who is forced to undergo facial reconstructive surgery and leave the life he knows behind. Years later, he re-enters his old life as the piano teacher to the daughter he never had the chance to meet.
The film is written by Mark Dennis and co-directed by Dennis and his frequent collaborator, Benjamin Foster. Together the two filmmakers have directed three short films: Lonely Gun, Billy the Squid and The Alternate. This production incorporates new P2™ technology and advanced HD filmmaking, to bring audiences 35mm quality for a fraction of the cost. Motion Films has partnered with Dennis and Foster to serve as Executive Producers on the project and to help seek distribution opportunities.
