Bryan Huynh is an award-winning filmmaker for his written & produced trilogies: TODAY (Sight Unseen) 2018, TOMORROW NEVER CAME 2019, and YESTERDAY NEVER ENDED 2021. The idea of the trilogies is based on Mother Teresa's quote "today, tomorrow, and yesterday". Each story comes from different source or idea that Bryan has had since 1988.
TODAY's (Sight Unseen) idea came from his love for Reese Witherspoon's 1994 movie "The Man in the Moon". TOMORROW's story idea was based on a real-life story from his college day (in 1989) at the end of a semester where the news of a young Asian man's life had ended. YESTERDAY's story happened when Bryan read an on-line article about a young boy who was in reincarnation from a terrible incident. Also, it was Bryan's love for the 2001's Sundance favorite "Memento".
In May 2023 Bryan completed a short film I DRUM TO A DIFFERENT PUZZLE, a story of an autistic teenager girl who is searching for the true meaning of love. Since last September 2023 the film has received great acceptance on the festival circuits such as: New Jersey Film Awards (Best Inspirational Short, Best Ensemble, and Best Female Filmmaker); Sacramento Independent Film Festival (Best Producer, Best Female Director, and Best Acting Ensemble); East Coast Movie Awards (Best Actress in Drama); Wine Women Film Festival (Finalist for Best Director: Short Film); Florida Shorts (Best Producer); Toronto International Nollywood Film Festival (Best Movie Director Short Film); New Jersey International Short Festival (Best Producer); Mediterranean Film Festival Cannes Athens Milan (Best Family Short Film); and Cannes Independent Shorts (Best Narrative Short).
The "I DRUM ..." screenplay has also received several awards from Wine Women Film Festival (Best Short Screenplay); California International Short Festival (Best Short Script); Vail Film Festival 2023 (Finalist as 1 of 14); Golden Nugget International Film Festival (UK) (Nominee); and Grande Stories Screenplay Competition (Finalist).
His next short project titled IT'S THE SAME, which is currently in pre-production and schedule for production in 2025. He wrote with an intention to show in life we "judge" others by just looking at their clothes and appearances. Does it mean if that person has disabilities, that person is handicapped and not smart at all? The reality hits when there is an encounter to have that conversation, and it's not "the cover" that we should "judge" others.
Currently he is in a draft mode of the script and the idea is inspired by Doris Day's song "Que Sera" (What Will Be) and another script about a stepmother and her daughter and how "it's time to get to know each other."
His completed short script WORDS DON'T COME EASY, currently on a festival circuit. It's about relationship and the meaning of communication. It has received recognitions such as Best Short Script from London Movie Awards, Honorable Mention at New York Screenplay Competition. His feature script THE WEEK THAT WASN'T, a "finalist" at Las Vegas Screenwriting Festival.
