Burbank director a hit in Hollywood
Joan Curson writes at valleynews.com about Brian Ochab, a Burbank resident, who has been getting Hollywood's attention lately. He created a short film for the new Steven Spielberg/Mark Burnett reality show "On the Lot." The show divides 16 undiscovered directors into teams who compete to finish a short film each week. The winner receives a $1 million development deal with DreamWorks.
Ochab's short, "Pitching Loose Women," is, in the words of the Hollywood pitchman character in his flick, "an epic adventure of lost love, like Indiana Jones meet Mogambo." Ochab opens the short, which you can see online here, by parodying the opening of the 1966 Batman television show.
Funny stuff.
