Will Blank is the director of LIMBO, a short fantasy film starring Academy Award® Nominee Sam Elliott and Raúl Castillo. It features extensive use of practical special effects and puppetry.
This adaptation of a comic strip by Marian Churchland was praised by Filmmaker Magazine, Indiewire and legendary filmmaker Guillermo del Toro, who called it an “excellent film.”
20th Century Faux
20th Century Faux is a series of sixteen comedy short films co-created with director Jake Bradbury. Each film was conceived and shot in a single day.
Born out of the creative restlessness that comes with working long hours in the industry and never quite having time to make your own thing, this project was a deliberate bet on spontaneity over preparation. Whatever crew was available, whatever resources were on hand, that was the movie.
