BonFire Breakfast Productions

BonFire was born from a project that one day we hope will manifest — a crucial scene where a monstrous fire towers over the main character, his face radiant by the flames. We were hell bent on getting this shot. A fair amount of pondering proceeded… To shoot it we’d have to sacrifice some precious time and, of course, sell it to the wives; knowing a yard pass would be required. So why not make it worth our while and turn it into a short film? Done deal, case closed.

Ok — do we have a story idea? How about some close friends light a yearly bonfire in the middle of the woods? Easy enough and fund-friendly. Love it. Throw in some turmoil and the rest is history.

The short film is an ode to the Diversion Canal, the surrounding waters, and to our family & friends who live there. Even before the first idea was jotted down, we knew it was of utmost importance to do our best in capturing this unique area in South Louisiana — not only through sight and sound, but also how the world is perceived by some of the people who call this place home.
