The Company

Hodge Podge Productions was founded as a launching pad for the cinematic projects of filmmaker Eduardo Miyar and his loose collective of collaborators.  Its mission is to provide an environment in which mad artists and dreamers can realize their cinematic visions.  

The Filmmaker

Eduardo Miyar began making films at the age of 10 while experimenting with his family's video8 camcorder and super 8 film camera.  His first festival screening was at the First Annual Anti-Film Festival in 1993.  He earned a bachelor's degree in Motion Pictures and Creative Writing from the University of Miami in 2003.

He later went on to work with photographer  Carmen Ballvé on a four year project to realize Batey Mosquito (2008), a documentary about Haitian migrant workers living and working in the Dominican Republic. 

In 2010 Miyar wrote and directed What's with the Dummy?, a short film featuring Miami radio legend Ken Martin as a lonely (and possibly demented) retired radio personality with an urge to return to the airwaves as a ventriloquist act.

In 2014 Miyar created a music video for singer/songwriter Josh Joplin's Best Intention Yet, a song from the EP Earth and Other Things (2013).

Miyar's latest projects are two short film collaborations with screenwriter/critic Don Guarisco.  The first film,  Overlapping Scenarios (2014), is a rubber reality "meta-horror" with Valerie Jones, Eric Dooley, and John Stevenson.  The second project, Page-Jumper (2018), is a paranoid sci-fi thriller featuring Valerie Jones in the dual roles of a mousey corporate data clerk and a vampishly violent lady spy. This film also stars Mike Malloy and Mark Marple as two agents from a shadowy government task force.
