Less Than Kosher
At 20, Viv was a promising young singer. At 30,
her failing music career has forced her back
into her mother's basement. But when this self
proclaimed Bad Jew lands ass-backwards into
a job as a Cantor at her family's synagogue,
she’s thrown into a wild ride of illicit affairs,
drug trips, tense family drama, self-discovery
and some serious Jewish bops.
It’s “Shiva Baby” meets “A Star is Born.”
Modern Jewish wit and Hebrew Electro-pop.

Womb Envy
This series is created with Integrated Described Video (IDV) making it equally accessible for a blind or partially-sighted audience through its scripting, production and sound design.
Mark is stuck in a rut. Nearly 30 years old, he is wanting more than the tired beat of the Toronto gay dance floors and is seeking purpose in life. His childhood friend Mary is pregnant and desperate to escape the clutches of her religious zealot mother, Dorothy, and the small town they grew up in. Showing up on Mark’s door one day after years of separation, Mary convinces him to pretend to be her baby daddy, since he was the only man her mother ever approved of, after reminding him of the years she spent being his “fake girlfriend” as a teen.
They create rules to ensure the success of their half-baked idea, which splinters Mark’s fragile queer ego to create a drag queen apparition - The Divine - who constantly fights against this new assimilation to heteronormativity. Confusing things even more, Mark soon falls head over heals in love with their lamaze instructor, Patrick, which throws a huge wrench in their charade for Dorothy.
Internalizing the chaos in his life, Mark develops a rare condition known as couvade syndrome, bizarrely displaying pregnancy symptoms which become increasingly more difficult to hide, even from his new crush Patrick, who is partially-sighted. Everything in their lives quickly unravels, leaving Mark and Mary to pick up the pieces in time to welcome their babies into the world and into a new nuclear family.

HOT ANGRY MOM
Marie is a people-pleasing New York City mom who thought she’d have money, success, and respect by middle age. Instead, she’s working too many survival jobs and failing to meet her family’s expectations. But Marie’s the kind of woman you can count on to swallow her anger and put on a bright fucking smile. When she gets an opportunity to step into the role of a sexy powerful Goddess, Marie thinks she’s finally getting what she deserves. But her world is turned upside down when a video of her unleashing her anger becomes a viral sensation.
AndersonVision says, "HOT ANGRY MOM intertwines elements of ‘Fleabag’ and ‘I May Destroy You’, offering a raw portrayal of a mother’s life. It humorously yet powerfully guides the audience through Marie’s self-discovery, as she learns to acknowledge her anger and sexual power, aspects she was previously conditioned to suppress."
Film Threat says, “Tonally, Hot Angry Mom finds a good balance between the comedic nature of Marie’s story and finding authentic touchpoints to moments of rage women face every day. In turn, Mel House gives an empathetic performance in the serious moments without ever letting the comedy undermine her story.” - Alan Ng
OC Movie Reviews says, "“Wonderful animated and graphic elements add a stylistic flair to the pilot which really stood out. If you remember the movies Tank Girl or Scott Pilgrim Vs The World, this fun animation is similar to that.”
