New York – August 2025 – Writer, producer, and performer Steve Strangio is launching a dynamic new effort to bring his body of short films directly to audiences and potential collaborators via social media. With ten short films already available across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, Strangio is opening up his cinematic world to fans and fellow creators alike.

The films — ranging from comedy and parody to fantasy and drama — represent years of original storytelling. Each piece showcases Strangio’s distinct voice, blending wit, emotional depth, and quirky, character-driven plots.

“I’ve been utilizing social media for a while now,” says Strangio. “I have several shows on streaming, and I even released my first independent film, A Good Man, across several platforms a few years ago. But right now, I’m focusing on getting my short films out there. I figured social media is a good place to start — it’s direct, it’s interactive, and it’s the perfect way to connect with other filmmakers and producers.”

Standout Shorts

  • Journey to the Strip Mall – A scene from an award-winning feature screenplay, this quirky suburban odyssey follows a man through his neighborhood as he encounters colorful locals who help him confront his past.
  • The Interview – A sharp and sweet comedy about a young girl who takes it upon herself to “vet” her father’s new fiancée in a job-interview-style interrogation.
  • The Dress – A romantic fantasy drama centering on a man tormented by a past relationship, as he uncovers an emotional secret that redefines his view of love and memory.

More shorts are being released regularly as part of Strangio’s ongoing showcase.
