Director's Bio:
Casey T. Malone has been knocking around the TV and film world for a number of years including working on shows for Discovery Channel and PBS. His work has also been seen by readers of Astronomy, Trains, and Discover Magazine. As an independent filmmaker he has several credits to his name including the award-winning "Modern Age Amour," "CLOK," "The Imprisonment of Henry Stoker," "The Professor," and the "Blood of the Witch" cycle.
Director's Statement:
The dehumanization of people is of great concern to me, and the increasingly creative ways that we put technological devices between each other in order to communicate I believe is at the heart of Modern Age Amour. It's a fever dream that presented itself to me almost all at once. My goal was to make something unapologetically visual and combine that with the growing sense of technological alienation we are beginning to feel in Western culture. The sound design, visual, and musical elements hopefully all come together to create a film that is a warning, but if I'm being honest, the greatest joy I feel is watching what people get out of it. Like the film itself is a Rorschach test from some half forgotten memory.

I cant say that i am shocked that this wonderful film maker is doing great this with his ability to capture the attention of a vast audience. I am just honored to have crossed his path as he was an instructor of mine for two years.
