The End
September 2007, Orange Media entered the 36 Hour Film Race event at the annual CineSol Film Festival in southern Texas. Filmmaking teams had 36 hours to complete a ten minute horror film that included certain required props, characters, dialogue and locations. Orange Media’s entry was a zombie/survival film called “The End” which I was asked to edit.

Odyssey
“‘I long for home, long for the sight of home.
If any god has marked me out again
for shipwreck, my tough heart can undergo it.
What hardship have I not long since endured
at sea, in battle! Let the trial come.’”
Homer’s “The Odyssey”; Book 5, 229-33
Synopsis
After twenty years of war, the noble and famous general Odysseus is returning to his home planet of Ithica when his ship is lost after a vicious attack. Presumed dead, Odysseus must journey through space for seven years, his final odyssey, to return home.
From The Director
In lieu of a feature-length production, I’ve been developing a trailer to demonstrate the potential movie’s dynamic universe. Rooted heavily in the original Homeric tale, Odyseey tells the familiar classic story of a soldier’s epic journey home. The setting, however is different. Ships fly through space instead of on water, historical lands are represented by planets and mythical monsters are now terrifying alien creatures. Sci-fi will never be the same. - Jason R. Johnston
Hunt
An animated science fiction short film directed by Jason R. Johnston where a hunter becomes the hunted on a distant alien world. In ongoing development since 2001.
