Jacaranda Joe is a 1994 American short film written and directed by George A. Romero.
Production
[edit | edit source]Initially conceived in the 1970s as The Footage, the film's was about reality television show in which a famous athlete learns to hunt and accidentally discovers a community of bigfoot.[2]
That version of the story would be about the filming of the television show[1] whereas the retooled version that became Jacaranda Joe was a "proto-found footage movie"[1] in documentary style[3] which would feature a leaked clip from a television show similar to the one from The Footage.[1]
Filmed at Valencia College in Florida[1] over ten days[2] it had a cast and crew of students, faculty, and local industry professionals.[2] It was the first film that Romero shot entirely outside of Pittsburgh.[4]
The short film has never been publicly screened[4] although a VHS copy of the workprint exists[5] as well as six reels of camera negatives.[6]
