SYNOPSIS

Synopsis

meet the cast and crew

Stephen Morgan's passion for cinema has consumed more than half his life. As the founder of Studiotown, Stephen has had the opportunity to write, produce, direct, shoot and cut all of his own projects over the years.

 

Stephen started making short films at the age of 13 with his friends on his dads VHS camcorder. His passion for a career in cinema came after he saw Saving Private Ryan, where he realized that movies can evoke emotion. He has been working at his craft ever since.

 

Before Relative Duplicity, Stephen co-wrote and directed Don't Look Away, a short film about human trafficking that premiered at the Enzian Theater, home of the Florida Film Festival. 

 

Stephen now lives in Colorado Springs, CO with his wife Bee and their two children, Avenue Katherine and Gibson Danger.

Isaac walsh is the writer of "relative duplicity". Born and raised in daytona beach florida, movies have always played a huge part in his life.

 

At the age of fifteen he was diagnosed with severe asthma which forced him into bedrest for almost an entire year, in that year he watched over 600 films, creating a fire in him to get involved with filmmaking any way he could.

 

After graduating highschool in 2007 he wrote and directed a few short films with his friends and read as many scripts as he could get his hands on.

 

in 2017 he moved his family out to colorado for the sole purpose of writing a feature film. "Relative duplicity" is based in part on a full length feature written by Isaac. 

CAST AND CREW

Zack Rush has starred in the feature film “Apocalypse Theory” as well as multiple short films.

 

Born and raised in Detroit, from a young age Zack had a flare for theatre and performance and would play any role he could just to be able to act.

 

With the pull to follow into the family business, he attended high school at Culver Military Academy and studied political science at Michigan State.

 

But the drive to be an actor never left his mind. He woke up one morning and realized he was squandering his passion, so he quit and headed out west to pursue his first love, acting.

Sarah JOhanna got her start in short films but most recently had a starring role in the award winning HBO short film “Monday” directed by Dinh Thai.

 

Born in Pozzuoli, Italy, and having grown up all over the U.S., Sarah saw from a young age the power of perspective. As a child she found herself studying the nuances and subtleties of different people and their customs.

 

Having grown up without a television, when she finally was opened up to the wonder of film, she saw that the same perspective exchange could be achieved through filmmaking.

 

At 19, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue her dream, by sharing her own perspective, and that of the characters she develops, with the world.
