three person crew can be all you need
three person crew can be all you need
based on an actual (strange) Sondock family tradition called Dockmas
my grandma makes a cameo, my mom helped make the cord
fake trees, real dirt, never enough shovels
the credit sequence is a gopro in a helmet against a TV
shot parts while harnessed to the edge of a cliff in Malibu
time is too expensive
the most recognizable wallpaper in the NYC film scene
pretty good for $2k all in
played by the comic himself
filmed outside my sophomore dorm
made with borrowed plants only
played by my high school drama teacher
closer to a doc than we’d like to admit
Sondock was the director & primary stuntman.
After slowly discovering that films could engender feelings far more meaningful than nausea, he turned filmmaking into a profession.
With an efficacious background as a 5-times-Vimeo-staff-pick-winning producer, Sondock has made ads for brands such as Google, Zara, BMW, Calvin Klein, Pantene, Pepsi, Meta, Bumble, Honda, Converse & Unicef as well as videos for artists such as Harry Styles, Bad Bunny, The Strokes, Glass Animals & A$AP Rocky.
His work has received critical acclaim, thumbs-ups, from, booooooom, Director’s Library, Director’s Notes, Berlin Commercial Awards, Sarasota Film Fest, Lower East Side Film Fest & many more.
He garnered a Staff Pick & UKMVA nomination for his most recent music video, Beetlebugs, was shortlisted for the Creative Circle, won the Best Alternative Music Video award at the UKMVAs, and took home the Cannes Young Director Award (YDA) for his music video Morning / Midnight.
He loves taking outrageous concepts very seriously.
NOTE: Sondock still does his own stunts.
