Psychic Bunny

We’re on set with Rick Castañeda at The Complex Studios! Filming 8K with the Red Helium.

Here's a mini-episode about the intelligibility of the universe that we filmed all over the world. Starring Moez Masoud , Astronomer Royal Martin Rees, Biologist Richard Dawkins, oh, and Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein. The re-enactments were a ton of fun to film. Many thanks to Laura Reich for producing them, to David Carstens for cinematography, Julia Hapney for period makeup and hair, Katheryn Shemanek for costume, Jack Piatt for Production Design, and Cornell Mitchell for gaffing. And thanks to Aaron Bennett for editing with me! - Rick

With quite an amazing team spanning 4 countries, we took a journey with Moez Masoud to try to find answers to the big questions. Here's the first small part of that journey. We couldn't have done it without an amazing team. With Laura Reich as our main producer in the US, and Moustafa Salah and Zeina Amr Eissa producing in Cairo, Omar Kenawi coming in to produce for both England and UAE, and Susan Kenawi and Bex Martin production managing in England and Mwendwa Joy... in Dubai. Joe Hardy helping in England - we miss you Joe! Have to account for Stacey Wilson with accounting, of course. Arian Saleh composing our amazing music! Stephen Tringali and David Carstens on cinematography, George Watts on drums, I mean production sound, Kelly Smith and Vito Huizar and Daniele Banzato on camera, Lauren Miller on costume design, Kieron Levine on hair and makeup, and Thalia Ecclestone on production design. Have to thank Aaron Bennett for editing, Luis Gonzalez for graphics and title design, and Christian Magadan for graphics help here and there. Thank you Asa for helping in about a billion ways. I'm forgetting a ton of people...truly an international production. This is just a tiny glimpse, but I'm so happy to finally show a bit of all our hard work. - Rick Castañeda (cowriter and director)

Armed with beautiful portraits by Kathryn Rathke, we produced this video about what UC Santa Cruz alumni are up to. Spoiler alert - they're doing a LOT!

Our co-founder Rick, who writes, directs, produces, fills out spreadsheets, and answers an ungodly amount of emails, well he also answers questions! Find out a little more about what he makes and thinks about. Thanks Voyage LA! http://voyagela.com/interview/meet-j-rick-castaneda/

Psychic Bunny has had a long history of collaboration and friendship with an LA comedy troupe called Lost Moon Radio. Actors from Lost Moon Radio have been in our films, our commercials, and have even participated in our 24-hour film festivals of yore. We go see their shows on a regular basis. Please consider contributing to their Kickstarter, for they are awesome. We'll post some of our favorite videos below. https://www.kickstarter.com/proje/919871249/lost-moon-radio

We're working on Rick's 2nd feature, and put this little video about how representation is important, and how the cast and crew of All Sorts came from all different backgrounds to tell one story. We're 3 days away from our Kickstarter deadline. Will you help us close the gap? http://kck.st/2I1QO8t
