RMP Update - PRESS RELEASE 8/08Posted on 11 Aug 2008
Renaissance Man Productions, a Fullerton based independent film production company, is currently in production on their first feature film, Once and For All. Written, directed and staring RMP founder Cory Reeder, the story follows HIM and HER, a couple, as they split up and set out to rediscover themselves as individuals.
"I'm calling this my "crime of passion" project," says Reeder, "because from the moment I conceived the idea the only way I could get it out of my head was to write it. And once I had written it, I had to make it." Shot in and around iconic Fullerton locations, the film also stars Jennifer Ross and Hollis Sherman-Pepe. Written in January 2008, principal photography was completed in May. Currently heading into pickup photography, the film is scheduled to be completed by September. In addition to Once and For All, RMP has been hired by Fullerton businessman Sean Francis to film the upcoming Spare the Air Music Festival. Beginning as the Orange County Earth Day Festival, the event has evolved to focus on the promotion of clean air and awareness of public transportation options, alternative fuels, alternative energies, and global warming. RMP's film of the event will be distributed on DVD, with the possibility to become the pilot episode of a proposed reality television show. RMP's documentaries Sociology of Me and Holey Matrimony: The State of the American Marriage are also still in production. Does the sum of the feelings friends, family, enemies and more feel about a person equal who that person really is? Says Reeder, "Sociology of Me is the story of my life, as told by everyone but me." It is scheduled to be completed in December 2008. Showcasing the American landscape and people, Holey Matrimony: The State of the American Marriage, (formerly titled Love: American Style) follows director Reeder across the country as he talks to people about the relevance of marriage, and is scheduled to be completed in the first months of 2009. No one needs to be reminded of the current state of the US economy, but even in these depressed times, Reeder has found that his small independent film company is growing. Recent graduate of Oxford Academy High School, Ramin Shakibaei, met Reeder while working on a project for his school. Interested in learning the ins-and-outs of filmmaking and getting firsthand experience working in the industry, he is currently interning with the company. Another new addition, Sarah Boros is active in the local theater and film communities. After losing her day job due to the real estate market crash, she joined with RMP as an associate producer.

In the coming weeks friends, ex-girlfriends, ex-band-mates and parents will be interviewed rounding out the story of Cory’s life. In the mean time the footage is being processed in post production and distributed to our “analytical crew” to help catalogue the moments that best define Cory.
