A B O U T

The films that we produce, are a layering of questions and observations of our current human and social state. They are investigations and reactions.

The exploitation of human error, true dramatic realism, critical thought and artistic collaboration are the key concepts that we address.

This said, our mission is to develop and execute projects that have the potential to stand as financially efficient and stable ventures, yet will not in any way compromise a unique and sharply produced artistic vision.

To Go Numb Films also offers post-production services and consulting. For more info, please contact info @ numbfilms.com

Peter Bolte is a Brooklyn, New York based artist and filmmaker. He received his BFA in painting from Webster University in 2000. He then obtained a post-baccalaureate in fine art from Maryland Institute College of Art. While there, his work expanded from painting to film beginning with his first avant-garde short, Consuming Capitalism.

Since this time, he has written and directed several short subject films including The Greims – 2009 (Wes Bentley, Francesco Saviano, Richard Edson), Veneer – 2008 (Michael Buscemi, Francesco Saviano) and V.O. – 2005 (Sean Gullette, Jake Robards)

Along with his film-works, he has directed two award-winning music videos and has directed spots for the American Red Cross and Nokia. His side projects also include co-editing the provocative documentary Begging Naked (dir. Karen Gehres), which won best editing at VisionFest 2008.

Peter has exhibited his paintings and films internationally at numerous venues including the Vancouver International Film Festival, St. Louis International Film Festival, Little Rock Film Festival, Woodstock Film Festival, Nantucket Film Festival, Anthology Film Archives, Issue Project Room, Galapagos Art Space, HereArt, Festival Electrochoc, Barbès Performance Space and Maryland Institute College of Art.

His new short film The Greims is currently on the festival circuit and he is slated to premiere a short documentary titled Dr. Sketchy’s Anti-Art School. Also, his feature length film debut Dandelion Man, is scheduled to be released on DVD in July of 2010.

Currently he is the cinematographer on Casting By (dir. Tom Donahue), a documentary on the history of the casting director centered around the legendary Marion Dougherty. He is also in-development on his second feature length narrative titled Anathema.
