Philip Berger has just joined bulletfilm.com. This is what I could find about him online.
Don’t forget to watch one of his videos
http://www.bulletfilm.com/movie/165
Philip has produced and directed prize-winning music videos, directed commercials, short
films, vingettes/idens, and driven commercial photographic projects. He has extensive
experience as both a director’s assistant and art director’s assistant, and so well un-
derstands the processes of making film on every level of budget. Philip has also worked on
script development and concept development for many winning treatments and pitches.
Philip’s fascination with the moving image started as a child, when his father bought one
of the first consumer VHS dual system video cameras that trailed light as it moved. Play-
ing with edits on the video camera developed an interest in juxtaposition, and he be-
gan creating multimedia stories with his first computer, a PET/Commador. Today, Philip is
still driven by a strong belief that the story is the most universal and human way of
conveying diverse ideas and messages, and his passion for narrative is evident in his
work, no matter what media form it may take.

ON THE WAY (PART 1)
ON THE WAY (Part 1)
http://www.bulletfilm.com/movie/156
This is a kind of show reel of an actor from India. I love what he has done and I love the passion he puts into his acting.
Uploading of his shorts only depicts that billetfilm.com is more just a website for filmmakers but also a website for artists in general (and I promise we work on improving the site all the time) which makes me as a creator of the website very happy.
I hope you will enjoy Gora’s work as much as I have.
Below is what Gora has to say about his work and him as an actor.
http://www.bulletfilm.com/movie/156
(this is just the first part don’t forget to watch the other two)
I started my acting carrier in 1998 in Calcutta (West Bengal)(India). Then I performed many stage shows (Drama) in different types of subject like
Socialism, Historical, Political, Science
Fiction, Criminology, Romantic, Horror, Mysterious etc. Beside those stage shows I participated as an actor in some movies. The characteristic of the movies and
stage shows basically depends on tradgy, comedy, romantic etc.
When I felt deep attraction to acting world, just then I decided to attend a very
good and well-known acting institute. So the struggle to fulfill my dreams of successful acting career began. I am still optimistic when it comes to achieving my goal
(I’m doing it with a breakable will and golden dream in my heart and mind).
The story of my movie I uploaded to bulletfilm.com is
“A young man was looking for a doctor’s house. The doctor’s
name was Robert Jackson. After walking for a while he got distracted by a speech of a political leader who was very much reminding Nazi leaders. After the speech was over he
Started to continue his search for the doctor. Suddenly he bumped into an old bagger but he didn’t know the address.
He started walking again and by accident he met
drunkard and mad and rowdy and spiritual leader (he stopped to listen to his deep peaceful lecture) However no of the people he met were able to solve his problem. At last he met a lady who was able to tell him the correct address of Dr.Robert Jackson.
It is a One Man Drama. The movie has no story as such.
If you watch the shorts you will be able to see some real pictures of human society
from different sides.
I think if anybody watches this movie with deep
Attention, then he will be able to understand the deep meaning of this movie and will enjoy it.

TRACING COWBOYS
TRACING COWBOYS
http://www.bulletfilm.com/movie/92
Jason Wulfsohn’s Tracing Cowboys is one of those extraordinary films; a shining example of the power of cinematic artistry to convey a story of beauty, one of life and death, and one that speaks to us all.
Imagine receiving pictures from the most important person in your life. You would feel happy, hopeful and excited. Imagine now that this person left you, vulnerable, alone and confused. These same pictures become snapshots of a life that you no longer understand, one that you are not a part of.
Debi has left Ethan without explanation. She travels to a small village in Mexico hoping to piece together her life, find out where she went wrong, and make peace with herself. Debi’s pictures become a map for Ethan. He uses them to find her. Along the way, he begins to understand her journey, and in his search for Debi, Ethan examines his own life, but will the answers be enough for him, and will he find what he is looking for in the end?
Reminiscent of Terence Malick’s Badlands, Tracing Cowboys is a meditative road movie whose characters are all, in their own way, searching: for answers, for love and for themselves. Like Debi’s pictures, we are offered brief snapshots into the lives of the young protagonists, just as in every relationship, when we only know what we see and must piece together the rest.

BEAUTIFUL DREAMER

http://www.bulletfilm.com/movie/150
BEAUTIFUL DREAMER is a trailer of a feature film made by Teri Farley-Teruel. If you are interested in a WWII drama you will definitely enjoy it.
~Synopsis~ At a time when America was changing forever, Claire Kelly (Brooke Langton) was sure her world had been torn apart when she lost her husband and the love of her life, Joe Kelly (Colin Egglesfield) to the ravages of war. Joe a B-24 pilot, taught to fly as a boy by his beloved grandfather (Barry Corbin), is shot down over Europe during WWII and is missing and eventually declared dead by the Military. Two years later, urged by family and friends, Claire attempts to move on with her life. However, fate steps in when Joe’s WWII co-pilot comes to town and gives Claire new information about her husband and the crash that she was told took his life. Claire hits the road in search of answers and closure, but what she discovers is that Joe is alive and living another life, in another town, under another name. Joe doesn’t recognize Claire and is a shell of his former self – haunted by the crash that killed a crew member in his arms, and nearly took his own life. Claire decides to assimilate into Joe’s new life, which causes problems with his girlfriend, Rachel (Lauren Woodland). Overcome with emotions and uncertainties, Claire consults with Dr. Kessler (James Denton), a specialist in war related trauma, who advises Claire to proceed very carefully – even though her presence seems to please Joe, it could ultimately destroy him. As a result of Claire’s presence, Joe experiences an increase in headaches, flashbacks and pain. Claire is torn between her love for Joe and the reality that he will never be the same as the Joe she once knew. In a moving act of selflessness, Claire decides to walk away forever to give fate the opportunity to run its course. With stunning visuals and a moving story, this film is one that will remind audiences what they love about the movies.

THE WORLD WITHOUT US
THE WORLD WITHOUT US
http://www.bulletfilm.com/movie/153
THE WORLD WITHOUT US is a new documentary trailer on bulletfilm.com directed by Mitch Anderson. I personally would love to watch the full version.
This feature-length documentary debates the implications and consequences of US military involvement in the world today. From an isolationist nation at the end of World War One, the US today has bases in over ninety countries. No other nation has been able to project military power as the US does today. But is such an involvement sustainable? Despite its might, the US is shrinking in terms of population and economic power in relation to the rest of the world. So, what would happen should the United States leave the international scene, and become again a “normal nation”, a republic, and not an empire? To find an answer to this question, director and producer Mitch Anderson embarked on an investigative trip on four continents. The film is an in-depth investigation of how US foreign policy affects the lives of millions of people around the world. Future scenarios in the absence of the US intervention are well debated and substantiated by experts and ordinary citizens whose lives have been affected by the American presence in different regions. The film’s main expert is Niall Ferguson PHD. Niall is very well reputed in the documentary world, he has co-authored many docs at BBC and Chanel4 in the UK and he’s the author of several volumes on world history. He contributes on regular basis on a number of Current Events magazines in the US and Europe. The film is conclusive, politically charged and opinionated, making for good drama while staying true to the facts and journalistic integrity.
