Produced by Aaron Weber, in collaboration with director Joshua Clark, Wander was shot in New York’s lower east side, Chinatown, and the Frelinghuysen Arboretum in Morristown, New Jersey. “Wander is the tale of a young boy on his way to school who discovers his inspiration, represented in the form of a glowing light, in a glass jar.”

Wander is the tale of a young boy on his way to school who discovers his inspiration, represented in the form of a glowing light, in a glass jar. Curious, he opens the jar. His inspiration flies off into the city and the boy chases after it. His search takes him to a place where the ordinary and the enchanted meet, where letting the mind wander is both exciting and enriching.

The film was created with the festival circuit in mind, both nationally and abroad. “I wanted this film to cross borders, so it was very important that we have a universal theme and no dialogue”, explains Clark. The story which they envisioned as the “back-story” to the company’s logo, a wandering child.

Prolific film and television composer Bob Lord created a unique audio experience for the film. “As a composer, WANDER allowed me a unique opportunity to sculpt music and sound design in a highly complementary manner, and create a form of music/sound/picture dialogue that, in effect, replaces words. Working with so few limitations is a rarity in film scoring, and I enjoyed the process greatly,” said Lord.

Wander completed the editing of Wander in-house with the help of freelance editor Jeremy Cohen. To accomplish the large number of effects shots, nine additional artists were brought onboard. Wander is currently being submitted to a large number of film festivals throughout the world. The company will announce its first screening shortly.
