Michael D. Witman - Director, Producer, Filmmaker

Having completed two years of work in the office of the Emmy Winning show "Modern Family," Michael Witman has turned his full attention to his long term project, Rochelle (Working Title). It's script has been written over the past several years, with the most recent third completed by co-writer Alicia Jordan.

Witman is now begining the difficult process of searching for funding and talent to bring this story to the silver screen. Recently, Mackenzie Astin has agreed to play the role of Carl, and is helping to gather more talent to be part of this project.

Clifford J. Tasner is signed on as the composer for this film, proposing an orchestral score to emphasize the drama of the story. He has worked as an arranger and an orchestrator for well over a decade with prominent composers, including John Williams. Most recently he completed work as an orchestrator for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II. Tasner has also composed for several shorts and independent projects.
