Richard Burgin talks to us about his new film Fang
Manage episode 389551410 series 3320510
In retrospect, it was a crazy decision for Richard Burgin to make movies. Richard's awareness of his own mental health problems helped him tap into that for his work, creating characters with autism, paranoia, depression, schizophrenia, OCD, and other conditions. In 2022, Richard hosted the premiere of his first feature film, Fang (2022), at the Davis Theater in Chicago. Fang (2022) stunned audiences and critics with the intense body horror of a man turning into a rat (Dylan LaRay) and the tragic decline of his mother with Parkinson's dementia, played by Lynn Lowry.
Richard has contributed as a producer to feature films including Project Skyquake (2022), starring Laura Ellen Wilson, Tom Sizemore, and Robert LaSardo; The Forest Hills (2023), starring Shelley Duvall, Chiko Mendez, and Edward Furlong; and Crust (2024), starring Sean Whalen, Alan Ruck, and Felissa Rose. Richard has acted in Tears of the Damned, directed by his good friend John Joseph Dunn, and had a brief masked appearance as Dr. Rat in Fang (2022).
Richard's advertising work includes Fiverr: Help Is a Few Clicks Away (2023), Fiverr: Lost in a World (2023), the podcast promotional video Murder Coaster Sequence (2023), and the short PSA Autism Awareness: Think Before You Label (2023). Wildlife Nightmare (2023) and Boynya (2023) were made to help support the fight against animal cruelty and Ukraine's victory against the Russian invasion.
Richard has over a decade of filmmaking experience, starting with the video editing class he took in middle school. Working with his father, Richard Burgin Sr., Richard made two short films based on his short stories, All Ears (2016) and The Identity Club (2018). After his father's death in 2020, Richard dedicated Fang (2022) to him and pushed himself harder than ever before to be the best filmmaker he could be, like his dad would have wanted. Richard is a passionate, dedicated filmmaker with an obsessive work ethic and a wild imagination.
