Happy Monday and welcome back to reality for any Coachella-goers.

Daniel Padulo wrote, produced, and directed the hilarious short film “A Haunt in Bushwick,” an Official Selection at Sherman Oaks Film Festival in 2025 that won Daniel the Filmmakers Award for Outstanding Screenplay, Short Film – Comedy. Daniel also co-stars along with lead actor Sophia Drapeau, whose character Daniella has what you might call a complicated relationship with Daniel’s character Vincent.

We held the Los Angeles premiere for “A Haunt in Bushwick” at SOFF 2025 and it remains on the festival circuit, but as soon as Daniel’s ready to release it online we’ll have a link for you here.
