Your new movie Camo
vs. Genevieve - in a few words, what is it about?
I’m
just going to give you the plot outline from the IMDb page, after
Genevieve kills Ted Morris, she is greeted by an old foe named Camo, and he
is out for revenge.
What
were your sources of inspiration when writing Camo
vs. Genevieve? I
would say that my two main sources of inspiration for this short film
would be Freddy vs. Jason and
Godzilla vs. Kong. In the larger scheme of all
things Genevieve,
where does this movie fit in, and what can you tell us about the evolution
of your killer doll over the years? This
film takes place directly after the story from Two Twisted
Tales, she just
killed Ted Morris, and it is actually Ted Morris’ blood that she’s
covered in in this film. Do talk about the
creation of Camo for a bit, both in terms of character and costume! Camo
(like Genevieve) originated in my second feature film, Urban
Fears, and
the character was meant to embody all of the classic non-speaking slashers
from the ’80s. His mask was made by Bedlam FX, and I wanted it to
represent the mask of Jason Voorhees and the coveralls were a tribute to
Michael Myers, so I basically took my main inspiration for the character
from those two. He’s meant to be like if
Michael Myers and Jason Voorhees
had a camouflage baby I guess. What
can you tell us about Camo
vs. Genevieve's approach to horror? We
weren’t too focused on the horror this time around, we just wanted to
embrace the silliness and go balls to the wall crazy and fun with this one
I would say. A few words
about your overall directorial approach to your story at hand? I
basically wanted this short to embody the spirit of Urban
Fears as much as
possible, but at the same time I wanted it to feel a little different and
I guess a little more professional because I’ve grown a lot as a
filmmaker since then. You
also appear in front of the camera as Camo - so do talk about your
performance for a bit, and how much fun was it playing him? It
was a blast stepping into that role again, I love the idea of going back
and reimagining some of the characters that I’ve created a few years
ago. The performance was basically the same as the last time I played the
character, when I put the costume on it all came back to me. What
can you tell us about the shoot as such, and the on-set atmosphere? The
shoot was a breeze, we shot the whole film in basically one day, and it was
just a very fun environment, just me and my girlfriend having fun and
trying new things with the camera, it was a great time. The
$64-question of course, where can Camo
vs. Genevieve be seen? It
will be available exclusively on my YouTube channel (NMJ Films) on
05/01/2021! Anything you can tell us
about audience and critical reception of Camo
vs. Genevieve?

So
far it seems to be very positive, I think people have been getting a kick
out of seeing these two fight it out on screen. Any future projects you'd like to
share?
I’m
honestly not quite sure what’s next at the moment, but I’m sure I’ll
come up with something interesting to do next. Your/your movie's website, social media, whatever
else? My
website is nmjfilms.com, you can find all of my social media links and
everything on there. Anything else you're dying to mention and I have
merely forgotten to ask? Hmm,
not at the moment, no. Thanks for the interview! No
problem, thanks for having me!
