Code Name Jade 03: The Past Is Not Far Behind
I'm very pleased with the direction I went with the story of Code Name Jade. Episode 3 is about the past shaping who we are in the present. Jade was involved in a high roller poker robbery that resulted into a triple homicide. The score was a killing making Jade very rich, as it turns out diamonds was the main target in the robbery. I was very pleased with the way the script came out, I challenged my self to go in a different route as compared to the other episodes. This episode is more darkly themed giving the viewer a feast of new characters and a glimpse into Jade's past.
I was influenced by heist films such as The Killing, Reservoir Dogs, Belly and The Sopranos. I wanted to add a love triangle that deals with a double crosses, love and betrayal. The actors playing the roles did an amazing job bringing these characters to life. The crew was on point, especially since we rehearsed on the day of the shooting, Honestly the script I penned was easy and straight forward it was good to see the cast giving their all.
The skill set I learned with each episode in the Code Name Jade series is the challenge of creating unique individual stories, but share the continuous story line. This episode is the building block to the creation of Jade's character and how she survives in the underworld.

Code Name Jade episode 3: The Past Is Not Far Behind
Here is episode 3 of my series CODE NAME JADE
This is a flash back sequence to how it all started for Jade. She was in love with the wrong girl who
got Jade mixed up in a high stakes poker game robbery. The ladies involved did an amazing job as well the guys playing mafioso gangsters. I decided to go into a complete different direction with the series by giving Jade(played by Ecko Goffic) a dark back story that explains her reasons for being involved in the underground organ harvesting trade. Stay tuned for more pics and insight.

YEG DIGNITY CAMPAIGN
Here is the full video of The YEG DIGNITY CAMPAIGN. It was an awesome
event with artist Adrian Louden, Aaron Paquette and the Edmonton community.
It was good to see a diverse group of people came out in full force to paint on a canvas.
The John Humphrey
Centre For Peace And Human Rights approached me to be apart of their
Dignity campaign to spread the word about the increasing poverty rates
in Edmonton. I filmed the process and captured responses from the on-
lookers. I love doing these kind of projects because it gives me the
creative edge to do something real and unscripted. There will be another
vid coming up, and this time it will be in a shopping mall. I can't wait
to get footage of it so be on the look out.
