The Missed Meeting By Nate Feldman The next video is a short film I did about a guy who is supposed to meet with a friend at the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, DC.  His friend, however, changes his mind and doesn't show up.  When the guy calls up his friend, and finds out the only reason he didn't show up was his friend simply changed his mind, it leaves him at a loss for words. I made this film for my students at the ELS language center in Philadelphia.  In one of our textbooks, there was the expression "he/she changed his mind," and I thought this video was a humorous circumstance in which a person changes his mind. The story was filmed both on location in Washington, DC at, and outside of, the Jefferson Memorial as well as in my house.

A Zombie in the Woods By Nate Feldman In honor of launching this new site for my production company, Backyard Productions, I am putting up a video called, "A Zombie in the Woods."  Two girls, played by my daughters Sara and Sofia, hear on the news about a zombie in the local woods.  They go out to find it.  When they come across the zombie, played by myself, it chases them.  They escape, but it manages to jump out of some underbrush and startles them.  However, when Sara makes a desperate plea for the zombie to be their friend, the zombie, startled by this request, realizes it cannot harm these girls and decides to warm up to them. This story was a great experience in putting together a small movie and gave all of us a chance to enjoy ourselves during the Halloween season of 2018.
