JT Mollner
Mollner's Writer/ Director credits include "The Red Room" (2008), "Henry John and the Little Bug" (2009), and "Sugartown" (2011); all 3 award winning shorts that played the festival circuit and have now been acquired by Shorts International for worldwide distribution -- a rarity in the world of short form cinema. JT has directed numerous commercials and music videos, most noteworthy being a spot for Lincoln MKS that aired during the Grammy Awards in 2011. In 2015, Mollner made an impact by presenting screen legend Dee Wallace (America's Mom) in the against-type role of a drug addicted, chain smoking bad girl in his 16mm short film "Flowers in December" - inspired by the gritty, "blue collar dramas" of the 1970's. His debut feature film, "Outlaws and Angels", starring Chad Michael Murray, Francesca Eastwood and Luke Wilson shot on a micro-budget and premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on a 35mm Kodak film print in 2016. It was released in theaters across the U.S. in July 2016 by Orion/MGM and has since been released on DVD, Television, and Digital platforms by Momentum/Eone
JT is a staunch proponent of celluloid image capture and projection and has partnered with Kodak Motion Picture Film on multiple projects. He was a recipient of the Kodak Auteur Award in 2017.
JT has been a Jury member of the Hollyshorts Film Festival since 2012.
Mollner's production company, "No Remake Pictures", is committed to injecting original, unique, and sometimes controversial stories into a market saturated with remakes and safe, formula fare. The company (an advocate of real film stock, and not video) is a proponent of practical effects over CGI and VFX.
