DIRECTOR Eric Bugbee of Blue Trail Entertainment has 25+ years experience in Film / Video / Broadcast TV industry as director, cinematographer, director of photography (DP), screenwriter, story development executive and editor.
" I got into filmmaking because I had a fascination with life and exploration. In my teenage years I realized that I wanted to explore many facets of life and cultures — what makes people do what they do, why are they driven to do what they do, and what is the ultimate goal of it all? I found my overarching answer in God, and while in film school at Penn State University, I received the calling to advance His kingdom through film.
I found that the key ingredient to filmmaking is mastering story, in particular, classic three-act story structure. For years, I thought it was all about directing, cinematography and editing, but the true power comes in understanding story craft. Everybody else can be hired, but the storyteller is the most powerful person on set.
God has so many stories He wants to unleash through His people in this era. As a person who loves to encourage others, I’m stoked to help people get them written and made into movies!"
"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength."
— Philippians 4:13
We’re a husband-and-wife team, based in Atlanta GA, married over 20 years and working together for 20 years as filmmakers and storytellers in the arts and entertainment industry with our production company. Since 2004, we have helmed over 750 corporate and marketing productions for companies and nonprofits. On the film and TV side, our focus is developing and producing RIFF (Redemptive, Inspirational, Family or Faith) content, which takes our audience on gripping and impactful journeys.
Our first film HEROES OF DIRT (PG-13, 2015) is about a young man’s passion to achieve greatness as a BMX stunt champion but realizes true significance by mentoring a troubled teen. We explored the message of John 15:13 in our movie's theme, in which Jesus says "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends."
Our redemptive and inspirational movie went out on limited theatrical release to 60 US markets with Cinemark, Carmike and indie theater chains, and was listed in the 75 Movies To Watch Fall 2015 by Vulture / New York Magazine, listed with big titles like Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Spectre, The Martian and more. Our biggest promoters were ESPN, USA BMX and Big Brothers Big Sisters of America. One New York critic from Rotten Tomatoes wrote about our film as "exhilarating, captivating, inspiring, heartwarming..."
Since then, we've continued developing feature films and TV shows, which we plan to produce, and are continuously fostering relationships in the film industry for strategic partnerships. But more than our credentials and experience, we will give real talk and show you our misses and mistakes along the way, so you can avoid them. We believe you'll gain more value from our authenticity and lessons learned than from any formal education or pre-recorded coursework currently available.
In 2016 we founded a nonprofit organization, Arise & Shine Ministries, aimed at inspiring and helping Christian artists from all creative disciplines to thrive in their calling. It is our goal and passion to launch a movement of Kingdom storytellers, who receive inspirational stories from the Holy Spirit (even with real-life testimonies), which could be turned into movies for the world to see, and lead to amazing real-life transformations, as we expand God’s Kingdom together.
Teachers tell you the steps, but mentors show you the scars!
PRODUCER Jill Bugbee of Blue Trail Entertainment has 20 years experience in Film / Video industry as producer, production / project manager, sales and marketing director, film packaging, film distribution, story development executive and writer.
"I was actually in a completely different field, graduating with a Masters degree in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Southern California (USC). Over the years, as I learned the roadmaps of the movie business, I discovered my passion for producing, and now I engineer films instead!
I love the process of story development and project management. God has blessed me not only with creativity and emotional depth in my soul, but with an organizational mind to successfully “connect the dots” like a puzzle along the critical path of any story or project, from conception to completion.
Equally important is my desire to help people whenever I can, and to see the true potential in each person - no matter their background. I'm a true advocate for someone I believe in!"
"Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord rises upon you."
— Isaiah 60:1
