iEmpathize - Human Trafficking 101 •TEASER_____________WATCH FULL MOVIE
This is the latest film Stephen Vidano produced/directed for iEmpathize. The content is disturbing and not for young eyes and ears. The stories presented in this movie are sobering, to say the least.
Human trafficking and the sex trade is alive and well. And it's not just "over there." It's serious business, with an emphasis on the word "business."
iEmpathize is an amazing organization that is utilizing the arts to bring awareness and life change to thousands of men and women, young boys and girls who are being exploited every day. Every night.
For these children the nightmare continues with out any way of escape. They can't close their eyes to the issue. They can't "turn it off." They will never be able to say "I've had enough" unless you and I do something.
I want to thank everyone for their amazing contribution to this film. I am not the same because of it.
Founder of iEmpathize: BRAD RILEY. Location Video Footage: TIM HILL. Location Audio Recording: JESSIE MAREK. Still Photography: PETE GIBSON. Music by SON LUX. Director / Editor: STEPHEN VIDANO.
'Miracle' Tim Tebow Super Bowl ad puts hit on critics
"Touchdown! The long-awaited, much-hyped ad from Focus on the Family aired shortly after the Colts and Saints kicked off at Super Bowl. And their early hit could have the last laugh on critics."
We are very excited to have finished production on the Tim Tebow Super Bowl Ad for Focus on the Family! Stephen Vidano Films spent 2 months producing the spot from start to finish. The shoot took place in Orlando, Florida at the Full Sail University studios. With the help of Brian Baugh (D.P.) Adrian Chynoweth (Production Coordinator), and Luke Atencio (Original Music Composition), Stephen Vidano and Mark Waters (Writer) directed Tim and Pam Tebow through their lines for the 2010 Focus on the Family Super Bowl commercials.
On Set:
Pam Tebow is a natural. She is the picture of grace and perseverance as she delivers line after line; pushing for "just the right take" or "just the right inflection." Pam's poise and beauty are truly evident in the final spots. Hours later the atmosphere is "electric" as Tim walks on set. Tim's infectious smile and light humor warms the sound stage, and creates a natural connection between mother and son.
Watch the Tim Tebow Super Bowl commercials here! Watch the Tim Tebow Super Bowl Ad during the pre-game AND during t he game! And after February 7th watch the super bowl ads here! In addition, behind the scenes footage and photos will be posted.

This is the latest short film Stephen Vidano directed and produced for Lamplighter Theater.
Lamplighter's desire is to produce feature length movies that parallel many of the stories they have published during the last 20 years.
Written by John Fornof, and co-produced by Adrian Chynoweth, Lamplighter's vision for this short film was two-fold: first to create a story that brought great weight to the written word (and the treasure that it can be), and second they wanted to produce something that inspired people to persevere during suffering and trials. There are many more messages hidden in this story. That's the beauty of telling stories.
We are very excited to announce the release of our most recent long form, 3 screen movie called Look Before You Leap, a dynamic 3 screen multi-media experience that takes relationship education to extreme heights (literally).
The red carpet premier of LBYL took place in Dallas, TX, and opened to an outstanding audience of over 600 people at the Dallas Flight Museum. Projected on 3 screens (totalling over 45 feet wide) LBYL boasts an amazing bass thumping, seizure inducing, original score by music composer Luke Atencio.
The first scene of the movie opens with an eye popping stunt when JC Colcasure (skydiver extraordinaire and stunt man for Stunt Junkies and countless other shows) jumps from a plane at 3,000 feet and procedes to fall at 150 miles and hour and land in the back of a moving truck on the tarmac of a runway. With 4 cameras rolling (including a helmet cam that JC was wearing) the scene kicks off the movie with incredible speed and energy.
We are very excited to announce the release of the Star of Bethlehem, in stores nationwide through MPower Pictures and Genius Products (also known as Genius Entertainment). Genius is owned by the Weinstein Company (creators of the highly successful production co. MIRAMAX - now owned by Disney).
For the past year we have been in production on a one hour documentary called The Star of Bethlehem. The history of this specific story starts with a man named Rick Larson, and spans 10 years of research, development, presentations and prayer.
Recently Steve McEveety (producer of The Passion of the Christ, Braveheart, We Were Soldiers, What Women Want), founder of MPower Pictures , signed The Star of Bethlehem as the production company's first release under their new banner. The Star is currently being distributed nationally and internationally.
Needless to say we are very excited that this film has the opportunity to be seen by countless number of people who might not have seen it with out MPower's participation.
