Synopsis:
In "Not Your Typical Bigfoot Movie," filmmaker Jay Delaney provides a look at the trials and triumphs of friendship and life in the Appalachian foot hills. Through the experiences of two amateur bigfoot researchers in southern Ohio, we see how the power of a dream can bring two men together and provide a source of hope and meaning that transcend the harsh realities of life in a dying steel town. Director's Bio:
"Not Your Typical Bigfoot Movie" is Jay Delaney's first feature-length documentary. The film holds special significance to him because it features his hometown in the Appalachian foothills of southern Ohio. Prior to making the film, Delaney worked on various productions in New York City, including "The New Bozena," a short film directed by Rainn Wilson. Delaney has a longstanding commitment to community development. He has previously worked on staff for the Sarasota Film Festival, a U.S. Congressional campaign, the Dayton Area Chamber of Commerce, the Centerville Arts Commission, and the Children's Home Society of Florida, a nonprofit devoted to helping abused and neglected children. In addition, he previously served on the board of the Dayton Council on World Affairs and co-founded its young professionals program.Most recently, Delaney produced "Hope for a Thorn," a microbudget digital feature currently in post-production. The 21-day shoot took place in Orlando in the summer of 2007. He is presently in his first year of law school at the Stetson College of Law in St. Petersburg, Florida. |
