Ruff Cutz > Alex Ferrari

Unsatisfied with conventional filmmaking, Alex Ferrari decided to acquire as  much knowledge about the art and craft of storytelling as he could. Coming from a post-  production background, this versatile director combines his passion for storytelling and  his post-production experience with a unique visual style. 

Raised in New York, now stationed in South Florida, Alex has become not only  one of region's most sought after editors, but also one of its premiere commercial  directors. Alex has edited two feature films as well as editing, post supervising, and  directing over 300 commercials. In the desire to create an intelligent action packed thriller, Writer/Director Alex  Ferrari and Writer/Producer Jorge Flores Rodriguez combined their technical and creative  skills to develop their breakthrough project “B R O K E N.” 

Eager to prove that independent no-budget filmmaking could reap more than the  standard “talking head” short film, the team set out to create a movie that not only had  depth of story, but would satisfy the senses with its action and visual effects. The goal of  creating a fifteen minute short possessing enough production value that it could seamlessly replace fifteen minutes within a studio film, seemed insurmountable. Yet, the result is a tale wrapped in over 100 visual effects and told in such bold, fresh form, that  its ability to capture the audience has propelled the project into feature film development. 

BROKEN has won Winner Best Director, and has been accepted into over 50 film festivals around the world. He is also currently producing an d starring in 3D animated short "Mike and Baxter" with Ukyo Studios. Also producing a documentary "Behind Forgotten Eyes" (http://www.behindforgotteneyes.com) and producing/directing his new short film "Red Princess Blues" (http://www.redprincessblues.com).

"BROKEN is essentially a demonstration of the mastery of horror imagery and techniques...effective and professional. Looking forward to “BROKEN: The Feature." - Roger Ebert (Film Critic Chicago SunTimes).
