Searchlab: Motion Picture House

Motion Picture House

I'm an independent filmmaker in college (student filmmaker is SUCH a negative term). I make a web series called Below Average and I'm currently writing a script for a feature length mockumentary that I hope to finish filming and editing mid-2009. I hope to get noticed like any filmmaker and hopefully make some successful movies within the next 5-10 years.

"The Shallow End" Teaser Trailer

August 28, 2008
This is the teaser trailer for the mockumentary I'm making. Synopsis: A Southern Californian who's sick of the offensive stereotypes of Southern Californians sets out to make a documentary revealing that Southern Californians aren't actually gang banging, surfing potheads who live next door to movie stars. Unfortunately, he only proves that these stereotypes are completely true. The Shallow End Teaser Trailer

Thank you, Fox Searchlight. It's an honor. I hope I can be featured again. I thought I would make a big deal out of this because I can. It's awesome.

Below Average - Running With Scissors

August 26, 2008
Brian has an addiction to the adrenaline he gets from running around with scissors. It's up to John and Ryan to put an end to this madness before he pokes an eye out. Below Average - "Running With Scissors" from Brian Misakian on Vimeo.

A Mildly Unformal (Yet Mildly Formal) Introduction

August 16, 2008
Hey, my name's Brian Misakian and I'm part of an endless breed: the independent filmmaker. That's kind of a stupid statement seeing as I'm on a site for independent filmmakers, but I digress. I make a web series with some close friends and I'm currently writing a screenplay for a mockumentary. If you'd like to be my friend and talk film with me, by all means, add me.

Below Average Pilot

August 14, 2008
This is the pilot for my web series Below Average. At the time, it was titled Life At The C.C., but then I realized that was kind of a dumb name. It's about three guys, who go to community college, just hang out and do nothing. The series is in the style of Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia. So here it is, Below Average.
