BOSTON, MA - On Thursday, October 9th, Boston production company Lost Jockey Productions will host a fundraising event for director Theodore Cormey’s latest film, “AERODYNAMICS.” Open to the public, the event will debut the film’s trailer and selected examples of Cormey’s recent music video work before the main event: a sneak preview of the completed film.

The event will start at 6:30 pm at Rumor nightclub, at 100 Warrenton Street in Boston’s Theatre District. Guests can sample hors d’oeuvres, enjoy a cash bar, hear live music by local musicians Ad Frank, Sarah Rabdau, and Annette Farrington, plus win raffle prizes. Tickets can be purchased at the door for $12 or RSVP @ tcormey@lostjockeyprods.com for $10. All monies raised will help offset final editing costs plus finance the film’s entry at upcoming film festivals.

A puppet fable with a fresh twist, “AERODYNAMICS” details the eleventh-hour mission of Lil' Moe, the first African-American ventriloquist dummy in space, and his estranged relationship with his ex-partner and ventriloquist, Willy Jefferson. Lensed in a replicated mission control station at the McAuliffe Challenger Learning Center, the film emulates the black-and-white style of a vintage sci-fi television show such as The Outer Limits.

“AERODYNAMICS” was written, produced, and directed by Theodore Cormey, a Boston-based filmmaker who has also directed the shorts “LANDFALL!” (2004) and “PAULIE” (2003). His 1999 feature film, “WHAT I DID WHEN I WAS AWAY”, screened at Park City’s No Dance, Boston Underground, and Woods Hole as well as several local and national film festivals.
