Washington Laws
Filmmaker
When not helping out on other projects, I am an independent writer/director working to produce genre-busting, dynamic narratives for low budgets.
If you want an idea machine I'm certainly your guy, but I also constantly seek out the most creative and passionate people in my film community to showcase their talents.
I design my films towards their unique voices to bring you the most dedicated creative players we have to offer.
We'll give you stories with a flavor you can't get anywhere else.
CURRENTLY DEVELOPING
Dark Adventure Double AA
Two rollicking urban fantasy comedy adventures.
Dynamic characters written for singular performances by local artists.
We make up for budget with craft.
The Dark Adventure Double AA is inspired by the showmanship of classical cinematic horror, from the Universal Monsters to William Castle, and the primal genre-creation of pulp magazines.
These aren't your usual ironic genre pastiches. Instead we're pursuing the way those works broke new ground in the zeitgeists of their times. We experiment with modern genre-busting built on cinematic fundamentals.
And at least a few real good laughs. Goodness sakes, we're still making pictures here, folks.

Dark Fantasy Comedy
In Development
Ritual murders. Things From Beyond. Card tricks vs demons. The true nature of dreams. A Weird Detective who might be more of a danger to those around her than the Cosmic Horrors.
MY GUARANTEE
If this movie doesn't make HP Lovecraft spin in his grave, we'll mount his casket to an industrial lathe.
Underground sorcerers. Crystals. Duels to the death in astral space. Herbal supplements. Craft fairs. A lady rediscovers her inner rock and roll. A no holds barred battle for supremacy with the scoundrels of paradigm.

Fantasy Comedy
The first thing entirely written, directed, and produced by me. Originally filmed to pitch a project to The Fantasy Network.
It taught me a lot about where I needed to develop as a storyteller. I've grown since then, but I still want to do something with swords.
