Bob Freville

Bob Freville is an independent writer and filmmaker from New York. His work as a journalist spanned ten years, starting with publication in small New York-based newspapers like The Babylon Beacon and Good Times Magazine, before flooding the internet. He has worked for Get Underground, Ink Mag, Muse Apprentice Guild and Kotori Magazine among others. His film career began with enrollment in a Digital Filmmaking Class at Huntington, NY's Cinema Arts Centre, where he worked on the Glenn Andreiev film "Sharp & Sudden." Freville worked as a Production Intern and had a cameo in the flick which was, ultimately, deleted from the finished film. In 2004 he raised $3,000 with co-producer Jake McGee, to shoot his first short feature film. "Of Bitches & Hounds," an avant-garde allegory about domestic abuse from the point of view of a man-dog, was shot on location in Kent, Ohio, in the apartment star/co-producer Jake McGee, had been renting with co-star Melissa King. After creative differences with two consecutive film editors, "Of Bitches & Hounds" finally wrapped post-production in 2007. The film saw its premiere at the unlikely Peabody's Rockstar, a Cleveland night spot famous for industrial rock music. It was subsequently rejected by all major film festivals. 2007 marked Freville's official acting debut in the duel roles of Mason and Johnny in James Neyman's "The Slasher." Freville, McGee and Neyman would go on to work together on 2009's "Irish Car Bomb" (in production). Freville has written, produced and directed his first long feature film, under his and McGee's new production company Intrepid Aspirations, LLC. "Hemo," a dramatic send-up of vampirism and addiction, is in post-production.
