The Magic Hour with Michael McCallum

GREAT NEWS! Rebel Pictures is proud to share that our short film, Off-Key, received a Nomination for BEST FILM NOIR & NEO NOIR at The Dark Fest in Antioch, CA!

This neo noir short was originally made for the 48 Hour Film Project: Detroit and it's done well at festivals since. It's one of the last RP films my Pop was a part of. I wish there were so many more. So many more. He helped sculpt this cool little dark tale and I'm forever thankful and grateful for his involvement. 💔

GREAT NEWS! Rebel Pictures is happy to share that our newest sci-fi film, Reverb, is accepted into The Monkey Bread Tree Film Awards in London!

Congrats to my creative team on this cool film and a special thanks to Scott Baisden for his patience and incredible talent. ❤️ 🎬

The pandemic and the passing of my Pops made this a much longer project to finish than intended, but it's done now and getting out in the world. A local showing will happen down the road.

Hello everyone! My Pop's car show event is coming up fast (June 21st). I'm asking for help with the event insurance, flyers, and our hand made original trophies for this free event in downtown Lansing.

Please share and help anyway you can. I just want to keep his memory alive with something he loved; classic cars and great tunes!

Facebook folks! This is the last push for this GoFundMe for my latest film.

Dream To Sleep was made early last month and now I'm asking for help to get it to film festivals.

Please share and help anyway you can.

*This was my first project since my Pops passing in 2022. It was bittersweet. 💔 🎬
