Designed the set & recipe for the commercial. Directed the shoot and edit.

Designed 5 sets, sourced resources/props, secured locations and did all pre-build. Had 2 on set dressers, 1 on set greensman and 1 art PA finalizing looks.

Acted as 1st AD in pre-production and on set. Crew of 22, cast of 15, 5 locations, 5 days of principle photography.

Developed, pitched, and found $15K in financing for a short film. Ran production from beginning to end. Currently waiting for next year to pick up shots with the child lead actor as he grows up (ala "Boy" by Richard Linklater). Budget is still intact.

Designed 5 physical locations, 5 greenscreen backdrops, numerous props. Worked with costume designer.

Cast, secured locations, talent managed, production coordinated (the project had heavy sound design/ composition so talent, designers and the director constantly needed updates).

Conceptualized, scripted, cast, location scouted, and directed.

Ran an art/locations budget of $50K, total project budget of $200K. Developed 15 locations w/ director and producers, built 5 with a 3 man build crew - had a construction lead but worked as an assistant carpenter in the shop. On set acted as my own set dresser with one asst.

Choreographed 7 fights with 28 actors. Used live blanks. Period piece set in 1960s Russia & USA, so I did historical research and weapon sourcing. Had 1 asst. fight choreographer.
