Feature Film Screenplays

Screenwriting

Aspire Street's founder Michael Angelo Colgan PhD has expanded his professional writing credentials into screenplays. His script Crayons placed in the Top 10% in the Academy Nicholl Fellowship, won the StoryPros 1st Place Drama Award, and picked up Best Screenplay at the Sunscreen Film Festival West in Los Angeles.

This script takes us on an emotionally powerful journey . . . The voice here is a unique one, very distinctive and subtle.
— Nicholl Fellowship

Crayons is a quiet, yet compelling story of one man's life journey . . . The descriptive use of color and light creates a powerful visual image.

Music Videos

Indie Songs and Client Productions

Music Videos are one of our great loves at Aspire Street because they let us put our creativity where our heart is. There's a freedom in telling a story when you're telling it with a song. So we like to push the boundaries by combining an artist's performance with images and storylines that passionately reflect who they are and what their music really means.

In our own indie music projects, Michael Angelo Colgan got together with Country artist Jim 'JP' Pirinelli to create songs that speak to the heart and soul of the American experience. Recording at GCR studios in Buffalo NY, Michael and JP have crafted music that honor the extraordinary lives and loves of ordinary people.

Children's Books

Writing, Illustrating & Publishing

Inspiring children to dream — and achieve their dreams — is one of the core values with our book projects. Aspire Street's MAC & Holly have teamed up to produce Children's Books that feature Holly's gentle and imaginative watercolors with Michael's simple but thoughtful words.

The Dream Box picture book is a true-life immigrant story that's also told through a Country song and music video. The song delivers a magical message, and the music video shows a story that is straight-on Frank Capra meets Hit Country. The Dream Box book encourages children to dream and achieve — with an understanding that being different doesn't matter — and that our dreams have a life of their own.
