New Fan Page coming soon...

Look out for what is to be a page I believe many will get to enjoy-my own personal fan face book page to display my work as a director/writer to the public on facebook. I'm excited about it because many of my family and friends haven't seen the short movies that I have done. There will be photos, short movies, and maybe some samples of writing materials of mine that I haven't filmed. It's exciting times and the I'm looking forward to sharing my work with many more people!

Cast completed!

'Feathered Thorns' is one of the latest projects I've been working on. Happy to announce the Cast is done! Pictures of the wonderful cast will be coming soon. A very cool facebook page will be presented soon for the stage play as well as a campaign page to raise funds for what is to be an incredible stage play.

Director's Quote Pt. 3

'To me, when cinematography is at its best, it is very close to the state of dreaming. You know, in any other art you can't create a situation that is as close to dreaming. Think only of the time gap. You can make things as long as you want, exactly as in a dream. You can make things as short as you want, exactly as in a dream. As a director, a creator of the picture, you are like a dreamer. You can make what you want. You can construct everything...'                                  
                                                                                                             -Ingmar Bergman


Cinema should capture life in the forms in which it exists and use images of life itself. It is the most realistic art form in terms of form. The form in which the cinematic shot exists should be a reflection of the forms of real life. The director has only to choose the moments he will capture and to construct a whole out of them.

                                                                           -Andrei Tarkovsky


You make films for people to see. I like my films. I haven't made a film I don't like. I don't sit and watch them all the time - that would be stupid! - but I can watch them and I'm pleased that they're out there. Sure, there are things I'd do differently now, but each film comes out of its own time. I mean, people have done amazing things on my films, on both sides of the camera. So to me, the films themselves are a celebration of filmmaking. I'm positive about it.

The progression of the 'Saints'

The feature length movie that I've written since late 2011 titled, 'All the Saints', has gone through some script revisions, and the first poster for the movie has been released, which you can see below. The graphics are done by a good friend of mine, Jason Williams. Aija Terauda is the lead actress, she was Vivienne in my award winning experimental short 'Beautiful Women Wake Up Early'. An IndieGogo campaign will be put up soon, very excited about that!

To keep up with 'All the Saints' go to it's very own blog: http://www.allthesaints-themovie.blogspot.com/

Here is the first released poster...and there will be more to come :-)

Casting 'Ivy'

Since Memorial Day Austrian actress Marlies Bell has been cast for the role of 'Ivy'. After a scheduling conflict with Bruna Berney, I had to look for another bold actress to play this dramatic role. Marlies emailed me a wonderful audition video...it wasn't too long after I saw that video that I gave her the role. She is a dancer, singer, and an incredible actress whom I am looking forward to working with in 'I am the Beauty of this World'. She's a student at Lee Strasberg in NYC.
