Scratch Off Productions is currently in post-production on two narrative shorts, both MFA thesis films by Dylan Rizzo and Abyn Reabe. We are also about to shoot Josh Mayfield's MFA thesis in August 2025.
Pre-Production: Overpassing is writer/director Dylan Rizzo's upcoming short film. In Overpassing, a Chinese American teenager and his immigrant father move through parallel days, until a devastating act of violence exposes the fragile masculinity and unspoken distance between them.
