The Saturday was a single location horror film directed by Horst Sarubin and myself. The film features a massive world/tone shift in which the look of the picture needed to adapt to the narrative. In addition to typical directorial duties, I was responsible for managing crew, blocking, and producing.

Manage cast, crew, and creative elements for the creation of a high profile proof of concept film from inception through post, including a large VFX pipeline. Creative team included multiple Oscar nominee/winners in addition to dozens of technicians.

Manage the creative discrepancies between craft and commerce on a feature film starring Paul Brittain, Adam Herschman, Neil Flynn, and Tim Meadows. Responsible for delivery of completed film from pre-production through distribution and beyond.

The film follows the course of one day and was a broad mix of daylight exteriors, interior, and both night interior/exterior. Night time driving sequences coupled with high noon daytime shots - all about balance.

WAYP was already 4 years completed when I was brought aboard to cultivate the documentary to its full potential. I worked with the director to ensure quality standards throughout post production. It WAS a mixed media doc with no music budget. Final product: Original music and a fully delivered feature documentary.

Led a team of expert cast and crew through the process of making a very complex visual effects heavy independent psychological thriller starring Clayne Crawford, Ethan Embry, and Mykelti Williamson. As the writer/director/producer, I cultivated a creative team to help execute my vision of a completed motion picture.

Sons of Liberty required a tremendous amount of attention to detail as it contains a high number of VFX shots, action sequences, and a large cast for a film of its budget. In addition to producer/director, I was also the post supervisor and editor.

Managed staff of 45 creative team members in development and delivery of a science fiction thriller. In addition to standard directorial duties, I secured locations, guided post production staff, and coordinated the VFX sequences.

Consulting with the Executive Producer, I delivered a realized vision of his film on a modest budget. Working as the Director and Editor, SkyHook saw a full release internationally.

As the VP of Production I was responsible for the delivery of client approved advertising driving motion media including commercials, corporate video, and branded entertainment. Serving as the primary co-producer, director and occasional DP, I helped boost commission 50%.
