Mark Rodney Entertainment’s First Feature Film

Content Creator Ironheart and Filmmaker Brody Bowman pose as their characters in the movie, Maggie and John.

Mark Rodney Entertainment is the banner under which the original creative endeavors of Brody Bowman and Ethan DeLeon live. This includes, but is not limited to short films, music videos, and narrative films. It has been a longstanding dream to create original feature length films, but creating a movie is no easy task.

Fueled by a desire to see this dream come to life, Brody began working on the script. It had to be something attainable while still telling a compelling story. Young screenwriters are often advised to write what you know. This is exactly what he did. Brody’s entire immediate family has worked in education in some capacity, including himself. He has been working as a part time art teacher for middle school and high school age students. Although it is not the first feature length script Brody had written, it was written to be Mark Rodney Entertainment’s first feature film. With the input from Ethan and other filmmaking piers, the script was completed. Mr. Howard is a family friendly romantic dramady highlighting themes of the serving others over selfish ambition and the value of investing into those around you.

The following is the official longline of the film:

Self-absorbed teacher of the year, Mr Howard, finds himself cornered into teaching summer school and must put aside his summer plans to teach a rag-tag group of less-than-scholarly students.

Over the years, Brody and Ethan have gained experience producing their own creative projects together, usually in the form of short films. This experience has forged them as complimentary creative partners. This film was written
