Wesley Butler, Producer/Director of Short Film
St. Paul’s own Wesley Butler (you may have seen him acolyte) has been nominated as a Best Student Filmmaker Nominee for his first short film “THE RED SHADOW” at the Terror on the Plains film festival here in Kansas City (since 2012). His movie will be showcased on the first night of the festival on the big screen for all to see on September 26th!!!
Wesley wrote the script, did all the story boarding, directed the filming, set up all the locations and actors, created and made the only costume needed (which consisted of almost 80 different pieces), along with all the physical gore effects (much to the chagrin of his mother). He did the majority of editing and all the sound on his own, with special effects help from a friend of his father’s. Our church was one of 2 filming locations, and even our very own Fr. Tim got in on a couple scenes, thank you for supporting him in this project. And thank you to Alisa Carmichael for the use of her office at the church. CONGRATULATIONS WESLEY!!!!!
