Christopher Guard

Don't Call Back -- This isn't just another microbudget feature film. Instead, this independent feature film was created when the Writer/Director Christopher Nicholson decided to combine a group of disadvantaged young people who he'd been introduced to at various media courses run by The Prince's Trust with some industry professionals who he knew in order to offer an opening within the industry to those who had the talent but didn't necessarily have the connections or formal education a traditional start-up job within the film industry demands. All of the young people who worked on the film gained professional credits and many went on to secure paid work building on their experiences gained whilst working on this film. Synopsis: Kevin is unlucky enough to work in the office from hell as a mail-boy and has to suffer the racist taunts from his boss and the failure of the love of his life (the office babe, Tracie) to even remember his name. Things go from bad to worse when Kevin discovers that one by one his fellow-workers are being turned into 'Worker Zombies' by the Security Guard who is a member of a secret Black Ops team.

Feature trailer for Dumbstruck. At the annual Vent Haven Convention in Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, ventriloquism capital of the world, director Mark Goffman discovers five extraordinary characters straight out of a Christopher Guest movie. But in this case the characters are real and their stories are deeply human and touching: Kim, a former Miss Ohio beauty queen yearning for her big break; Dan, a thriving cruise ship performer whose wife may divorce him when he comes ashore; Dylan, an introverted 13-year-old with dreams of hitting the professional circuit; Wilma all six-foot-five of her a former security guard who brings her dummies to senior homes and Wal-Marts; and Terry, who struggled for decades as a small-time performer before winning America's Got Talent on his way to a $100 million contract to headline the Mirage Casino in Las Vegas. Dumbstruck is the humorous and heartfelt story of these performers as they pursue their dreams of a career in puppetry. The film follows them as they take their acts across the United States, the Mexican Riviera, the Bahamas and Japan. It is filled with music, laughter, hopes and heartbreak. With its heart firmly planted on its polyester sleeve, Dumbstruck takes the American dream sideways and never loses its way.
