Get Rich Free

My film as a debut is something to behold. At its roots, it simultaneously disregards and incorporates executing the fundamentals of storytelling. What most consider tried and true has become cliché in Hollywood. There needs to be a break from it, and this may very well be the next wave. What many consider plot structure in America is different from that of Japan and other foreign storytelling. Many may not understand it, unless they have an affinity towards and for anime. The ridiculousness and singular focus of the film is refreshing, where we don't worry about the complexity of the characters, as the ensemble case is handled beautifully and the audience will love the singular goals of the characters. Money. And as we all know, money is simple but the issues that come along with it are complex. Much of the dialogue, interpersonal interactions, and turning points seem to be forced, though life must be forced if you have a success driven mentality. The directors covered almost every behind the camera skill position and have singularly defined the vision. We get to peer into the creators' minds. The movie contains great shots that have great composition and lighting. Maybe in the future, we will have more filmmakers who decide to cover all the skill positions themselves instead of presenting us art with multiple opinions and philosophies being allowed into the art because of commercialism. Though this film is almost, at least on the surface, as commercial as it can get. We all have to start somewhere, this film is an ambitious attempt to integrate anime into a live action with limited resources. During a time when major studios and producer are pouring millions into doing the exact same thing; I did it for $20,000.

Working on this film from its inception to the very end has been overwhelming as an actor and as a person mainly because you truly understand what it took for it all to be born. Paul and Shayan have basically turned a nickel to a dime and I couldn't be more impressed or appreciative that I was able to work with these 2 guys. My initial reaction to the finished project had me pleasantly surprised. As I stop and think about the entire experience and from day one how Paul and Shayan exceeded my expectations. How intelligent and hard working they were. With some time to reflect I can say I stand corrected. I am not "pleasantly surprised", with the vision accompanied by their work ethic the project turned out how I thought it would. Paul and Shayan are two skilled men working on their craft, putting out quality. What an awesome time we had in the making of GET RICH FREE. Boom!

BRAVO director Paul and Shayan on a great finish to this hilarious full length feature. You guys are really something special, especially with this being your first, sometimes I find it hard to believe you guys did this. Easy now that I've had the privilege of knowing you personally. I must say when I arrived on set, I didn't know what to expect simply because I didn't know a soul, but immediately while being introduced I actually felt like I knew everyone including cast and crew. Congratulations to everyone who made this possible, which is everyone! I remember names and would mention all now but I wrote too much already. I would live to work with you wonderful folks again anytime. Thanks for making me look fabulous!!! Best wishes on all your future endeavors everybody! And see you again ;)

Get Rich Free was truly an artist's blank canvas for the taking thanks to producer Paul Thind. Given the collaborative artistic efforts of our director Shayan Sharmahd and the creative freedom given by the cast and crew this story was simply as much of an adventure to create as it was to be told. With it's vivid cinematography, original scoring, and the biting humor behind every performance I'm thrilled to see this blank canvas transform and truly come to life! The art department was really effective for such a small crew. Being that it was only me hahaha. All in all it was pretty awesome seeing everyone's obvious hard work culminate into a film that is hilarious, beautifully shot and edited, and pretty well acted.

Nothing's better than spending the weekend holed up in a movie theater, devouring this intriguing movie by the young blood Paul Thind. This movie supersedes my expectations because when I learnt that the movie was shot with $20,000 I was so amazed because the quality of the high standard and the choice of cast was superb, At 23years old and he's doing so great what will he achieve when he clock 50? He will definitely be competing for Oscars. Firstly, I thought the movie was directed by Spielberg but it wasn't because the actions were just out of this world and the movie song was in tuned with the movie. I will definitely recommend this movie for everybody especially youth because it's a motivation for all youth to work hard in every line they choose. GOOD ONE PAUL.
