Poet Octavio Quintanilla commissioned Zero Untitled to produce multiple videos for his poetry, giving ZU room for interpretation and direction.  Currently, there are three videos scheduled for production.  The first, “Café Triste” was premiered at the private reading party for Mr. Quintanilla on August 8, 2014 to promote his new book of poetry, If I Go Missing.
