Melissa Ulto produces, writes, shoots and edits documentaries and experimental films. She started her career in music videos and working for MTV in production. In 2005, Melissa edited the film, The Art of Love & Struggle. As a DP, Melissa shot the first part of an HD documentary, Art & Apathy, on location in Israel. In 2006, she edited Death Before Dishonor, and just finished the edit of The Mighty Humble Blueberry. Melissa’s article, “A Filmmaker’s Checklist and 10 Important Questions – Creating Lists from Pre-Production to Post,” appeared in StudentFilmmakers Magazine’s March 2007 issue. Adam Matalon is a writer, director, and producer. “I have done a variety of projects which makes me happy as there is no one genre where I feel specifically placed. I’ve done kids projects for Sesame
Street: All-Star Alphabet starring Stephen Colbert and Nicole Sullivan, all the live action and celebrity segments for Exploring Together with Matt Lauer, Moving Together with Sarah Jessica Parker, and shorts for the Sesame TV show and DVDs.” “Sex & Camping,” a 38-minute comedy selection of the Cannes Film Festival Short Film Corner last year was featured in StudentFilmmakers Magazine (June 2006 Issue). Currently in final post on two films, Seasons In The Valley is a feature documentary narrated by Elliott Gould, and Death On Demand is a horror feature. Kevin Burke and Adam are almost done with another feature script, a teen horror comedy, My Sister Bites, which they are hoping to produce next year. The two will be attending this year’s Cannes Festival with screeners of both their current features.
