HOME/BODY
Quarantine 2020 Performances
Journal: Pitchforks & Torches
HOME/BODY is an OFFICIAL SELECTION for SHOCKFEST FILM FESTIVAL in New York for December 10, 2021!
HOME/BODY was created for the Corman Challenge 2020. Legendary film director, Roger Corman, challenged film makers to make a 2-minute movie only using personal camera phones and the property around the home to tell a story about the quarantine.
In 2021, it was an official selection
for NYC's Shockfest.
Isolation became the main theme and conflict for the married couple in the short film and what happens when someone hastily tries to regain some freedom outside of the home.

About Us
GF Productions: Founder & Producer
Dylan Hillerman founded GF Productions in 2008 and is produced in partnership with Julia Reodica.
Dylan has foundations in graphics, theater, and film-- having directed, written and performed in over 100 productions, live and recorded, for 25+ years. Since his childhood in the 1980's, Dylan has been involved with theater as a performer and crew. His long career involves working in all stages of operations for theater companies and promotional art. Currently he is writing, directing, acting, filming and editing GuignolFest's horror series, "The Night Attacks." Collaborating with other performance groups, he is an actor for many unique spaces in Portland. For more than 14 years, he has brought together hundreds of people annually for Portland's Original 72-HR Horror Movie Contest to highlight local film makers, from novice to expert.
Julia has been an interdisciplinary artist since the early 1990's. She has performed, produced, and managed works in graphics, commercial media, live performance, and multi-media, along with talent and studio management. As an interdisciplinary artist, she was a pioneer in the field of biological art, using biopsies of her own body to create living sculptures that opened up new considerations of the artist as scientist, art industry ethical considerations, and new laboratory techniques for creative use. She produces, writes, directs, performs, and manages film and live performance projects, in addition to creating art with Dylan. In GuignolFest's horror series, "The Night Attacks," she acts, co-directs, co-writes, produces, and co-edits film. Life work also includes health and healing with a Doctorate of Nursing Practice, as a Family Nurse Practitioner.
