Thomas Florek Has Premiered Films at ReelHeART Since 2007!

Thomas will Compete For a Double Decade Award with Some of His Audience Favorite Entries.

We first met Thomas through his Music Videos which he makes with his longtime collaborator (Dr.) Douglas Gentile, since they were college buddies back in the day.
Thomas and Douglas or “Tom and Doug” as they are known have a weekly Radio Show on stations in
Iowa, Vermont, New york, Minnesota, Missouri and More! They also host their (in)famous Tom and Doug Show each week on Central New Jersey Network
(formerly PrincetonTV) every Friday Night.
Both Thomas and Douglas are Activists.
Thomas works effortlessly on “Rides For Runaways” for the Anchor House Foundation.
Douglas is a highly lauded SME, Speaker and Researcher on the effects of media on childhood development.
They are intelligent, quirky, thoughtful, gregarious, insightful, hilarious and Truly Indie!
They are the ying to each other’s yang.

Come Meet Tom and Doug and hang with us in the Zoom Room while we learn about Thomas’s special brand of creative expression.
