“DAVE CHAPPELLE MUSIC VIDEO” RELEASED!
FEATURED
Posted on March 11, 2016
Dave Chappelle music video develops a grave sense of portraiture that aims to dispel the perceived glamor of celebrity and fame. It is a song of resistance, a counter cultural critique on American society, megalomania, and a public that often aims to elevate artists while simultaneously calling for, craving, and encouraging their eventual downfalls. The song offers personal insight and comments on the well-known narrative of comedian Dave Chappelle’s rise to fame and his choice to leave his show on comedy central.

HOMETOWN MUSIC VIDEO RELEASED!
FEATURED
Posted on January 16, 2015
The song Hometown emerges as the second single in Myrlin’s music project The Funky Autopsy. The song features lyrical content that exposes hometown landscapes that span middle American rural communities and wind through inner city vistas. Hometown draws images from a common caldron of American conflict by addressing issues of colonialism, class, race, consumerism, anti-immigration policies, and other oppressive symptoms of the American experience common to any hometown. Yet, in contrast to these symptoms, the song draws from a separate pallet of images that depict strong, dynamic, and beautiful communities where familial love, culture, and peace can and do exist. The compilation of these images set in motion with the music is designed to provoke critical dialogue about our times and the future of our world.
In panoramic sequence, and in verse after verse, the scope of the film broadens from a small community in Northern Idaho to the metropolitan area of Phoenix, Arizona, and finally rests on a pivotal ledge of this vast global community.

CASTING CALL #2 FOR “OLD STORY” MUSIC VIDEO
Posted on March 8, 2016
Casting #1 for March 20, 2016
Wanted: Seven to ten adults, ages (18+) of multiple ethnic backgrounds.
Procedure: Contact producer Maxima Guerrero via email (maxima.guerrero@gmail.com) and express your interest.
Project Synopsis:
Old Story is a song about the phenomena of American Violence. It covers the subjects of mass (school) shootings, police brutality, toxic masculinity, and colonialism with visceral concern. The second verse of the song offers the line, “We teach boys that their value is dependent on their will to do violence.” The film aims to convey images that support and enhance the subject matter of the lyrics by constructing two very interesting office, and classroom scenarios.
Narrative Office Building: Employees work in the cubicles when suddenly Sean Avery accompanied by modern dancers burst into a performance. Sean Avery’s verse offers lines like, “Sorry Mamma, my school cannot save me, cuz boy’s who look like me are dying, on backstreets like road kill…” that identify himself as a young black male in a world of increasing pressure. His performance polarizes the now standing employees, some of whom listen to Sean in solidarity while the rest respond very differently.
Procedure: Contact producer Maxima Guerrero via email (maxima.guerrero@gmail.com) and express your interest.

CASTING CALL #1 FOR “OLD STORY” MUSIC VIDEO
Posted on March 7, 2016
Casting #1 for March 19, 2016
Wanted: Seven to fourteen children ages (5-8) of multiple ethnic backgrounds.
Procedure: Contact producer Maxima Guerrero via email (maxima.guerrero@gmail.com) and express your interest.

The second verse of the song offers the line, “We teach boys that their value is dependent on their will to do violence.” The film aims to convey images that support and enhance the subject matter of the lyrics by constructing two very interesting office, and classroom scenarios.
Narrative Preschool Classroom: Students are seated at a table in a classroom making, what appears to be macaroni necklaces. A closer look reveals that they are pulling empty bullet casings from a bowl and stringing them into necklaces. Students discover pieces of paper inside of each bullet casing with names that represent victims of American violence: victims of Columbine, Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Sitting Bull, etc. Throughout the remainder of the scene students create a collage of the names they discover in the bullet casings. They create dramatizations of war games on the playground and finger paint.
Procedure: Contact producer Maxima Guerrero via email (maxima.guerrero@gmail.com) and express your interest.
