Written and Directed by Victoria Sayeg-Carr & Mitchell Boring
DisruptR by Mitchell Boring: In the midst of a digital revolution, a deadly computer virus named DisruptR created by an unknown hacker infects millions of users. Brandon is a cyber security expert leading an elite team to stop the virus and take down the hacker. While away from work, Brandon plays video games with his online friend Alyx. Alyx, however, is the anonymous hacker and creator of DisruptR. Oblivious of each other’s true identity, Alyx and Brandon form a strong bond while simultaneously trying to thwart each other in cyberspace.
The Twilight Zoom by Victoria Sayeg-Carr: They’re traveling through another dimension, a dimension as vast as space and as endless as infinity. And now, after installing what they thought was a routine update to their computers, a group of friends find themselves tangled up in the ether, somewhere between dial up and fios, in the dimension that lies between broadband and imagination. They’ve just crossed over into… the Twilight Zoom.
