This is about me. I'm the subject of this thing.

Writing a new feature length script

Hey dudes. I’m working on a new feature length script! The film will be shot this summer and is going through a bunch of pre-production stuff as you read this. Will announce the title in the near future, so look out for it. Also, in the very near future, I’m going to give you a sneak peek at my new short film, shot on 16mm. Keep an eye out for that one too ya punks!

New film: FLUFF

Working on my new short film fluff. It is being shot on 16mm color film. It’s about a world populated entirely by stuffed animals…and the story takes place at the tail end of a civil war. A plucky little guy named Jake is tasked with protecting the key to winning the war. Will post some production pictures soon.

This is my second attempt at a horror film. We shot it with no budget, kinda decided to make it on a whim, but it’s unique because it has only one cut in the entire runtime. Just took a bit of planning a lot of failed takes and a lot of luck. Check it out right now. Watch it in the dark for maximum experience.

This is the official music video for Last Nights Vice’s song ‘Lock and Key’. I shot it in two days and had it edited in a third day. This was one of the most ambitious projects I had ever directed. It wasn’t too particularly difficult, It’s just that I hadn’t been in charge of directing that many people before. It was definitely an exciting challenge and I’d dare to say the whole thing went off without a hitch. Hope you enjoy it!

Thinking about starting a band…

This is something I’ve wanted to do ever since I was a kid back in high school. A few pals of mine and I just started playing music together and I forgot how much fun it is. I just need to find my own drum set. I’ve always loved playing the drums. It’s just more fun than the piano I think. Hopefully we can start making some thrashy catchy rock tunes!

Arcade Fire: The Suburbs

A fantastic album. The music is rich. It’s fully, and it’s epic. It’s amazing. Please don’t miss this one. It’s one of my favorite albums of 2010.

My cellphone photo got put on Gizmodo.com!

I entered a cellphone photography contest on gizmodo.com, and ended up having my picture picked and featured on the site, its the second picture down. (picture of the corn) I’m pretty pumped.

“Redford Sent Us” is finished!

Our feature length (hour and 20minute long) documentary on the inner workings of the country’s largest film festival is finished. The film takes a fun look at the sundance film festival from the perspective of Bloggers, journalists, and filmmakers. The soundtrack is chock full of great stuff including the new song WTF? by the amazing band OKGo. It’s been in the works for about 7 months but its finally ready for submission to the festival. Sundance here we come!…..hopefully.

The Accidental Billionaires

I’m over 75% finished with reading the novel “The Accidental Billionaires”, which is based off of the founding of Facebook. It’s a surprisingly entertaining novel. I recommend it to anyone who’s interested in the drama that came along with a college kid who had a great idea and ran with it.

Shooting a Short Film Today

So, it’s almost 3am right now, so I’ll say that later today I’ll be shooting a short film to promote an upcoming major movie. I’m not going to spoil the surprise until I put it online finished. I’m hoping that someone will see it, and like it enough to put it somewhere. Vague enough? 

Wish me and my cronies luck!
