360 Seconds is a 6-minute short inspired by From Dusk Till Dawn, True Romance, Velvet Goldmine, Trainspotting, The Professional or violent movies with colorful characters, exaggerated fashion styles, humor, and killer scores. 360 Seconds is a commentary on films of the 90s which don’t come around anymore. A short film that concludes, yet leaves the audience wanting more.

Logline: Seasoned vigilante, Ladykiller, reminisces on an eventful evening in the restroom of a punk bar.

The basic intention for Bex Bradshaw, as a filmmaker is to make films that entertain, and to make them centered around characters, you’ll want to mimic on Halloweens, while it is about a subject matter you wouldn’t expect to come from the mind of a female filmmaker.

360 Seconds will be streaming on Vimeo beginning February 14th as well as her website.

Director Bex Bradshaw is an award-winning writer and director originally from Toronto, Canada.

Producer Stephanie Bignault is a first-time independent film producer originally from Atlanta and currently based in Los Angeles. She holds an MFA in Acting from the University of Arkansas along with an interdisciplinary BA in Theatre Arts & English Studies from Piedmont College in north Georgia. Bignault enjoyed the tactical creative dialogue that evolved through each phase of the production. She delighted in harnessing the details, helping Bradshaw fine-tune her vision for this film, and co-assembling a team balanced in its diversity.

Cinematographer Curtis Yap is a mixed Filipino American cinematographer with a voracious appetite for anything narrative or documentary. As a lover of noir and documentary, he hopes to combine the two someday. His siblings brought him up by quoting Adam Sandler movies, speaking almost entirely in movie references. Find him eating some mixture of  Arab, Filipino, and Mexican food in between his naps. “360 Seconds” is his second collaboration with Bex Bradshaw with many more to come.

360 Seconds will be streaming on Vimeo beginning February 14th as well as her website.
