Every night at 11:11, Toni gets a call where she can hear herself being chased and killed by a Eldritch horror. Now, It's up to her to figure out how to stop the calls by stopping the monster. This is our stereo version! More details coming soon!

This is my rough cut of the timejump montage in my short film, call 154. This shooting sequence ended up taking a pretty significant amount of time out of the whole shoot, but I really feel like it was worth it. With the steady and amazing hands of my Cinematographer Drew, we were able to line up shots and get a smooth pan with time jumps in the editing bay out of just his skills and the tripod we had on hand.

This is a bumper I directed and edited for a short form show for millennials that's about gossip and fun segments.

Wow! Check out these amazing wrestlers! And they're in vertical SLOW MOTION!!1

After the sudden death of his wife and the later suicide of his daughter, celebrated psychology professor Arthur Keller retreats into an obsession: a clandestine campus experiment of subliminal multimedia meant to cure mental illness — and to redeem his family.

Daughter of Mine is a tense psychological thriller set against a small university town, blending academic intrigue and gothic family tragedy into a moral study of responsibility, obsession, and the cost of playing god.

“When reckless young undercover David Lowde blows his cover busting an ice cream–based drug ring, the department pairs him with retiring, by-the-book Joe Locke—now they must expose a corrupt commissioner and a cocaine‑loving crime boss racing to launch a nuclear ransom, or Miami goes up in sprinkles.”

Locke and Lowde is a gonzo, gleefully absurd buddy-cop action-comedy set in a sun‑soaked, stormy Miami where old-school detective Joe Locke — a tuxedoed, nearing-retirement straight‑arrow — is forced to partner with reckless, undercover maverick David Lowde. When an ice‑cream truck bust spirals into a murder, a city‑wide conspiracy ties crooked Commissioner Max Dickson to cocaine cartels, a cloned kung‑fu workforce, and a madcap plot to build a nuclear warhead in an underground ice‑cream factory. Equal parts slapstick, noir pastiche and romantic farce (featuring Joe’s lab genius ex, Clearly Lovely, and the sultry, duplicitous Anita Direction), the film barrels toward one explosive, heartfelt showdown about loyalty, listening — and how to disarm a bomb bra without detonating a city.

“When awkward 18-year-old Zack is humiliated by his crush, his desperate future self time-travels back with one mission — get Zack laid — but fixing one night to save twenty years forces them to choose between betrayal and the surprising power of friendship, identity, and growing up.”

Set against neon arcades, strip-club misadventures, and a chaotic homecoming night, Zack’s nerdy crew—loudmouthed Dwayne, conspiracy-obsessed Oscar, and quietly fierce Jordan—mount an all-or-nothing rescue of friendship and dignity while the older Zack learns that fate might hinge on caring, not conquest. Equal parts gross-out gag and tender coming-of-age, the screenplay blends ’90s nostalgia with time-travel stakes to ask whether growing up means selling out or standing by the people who matter.

“When earnest rookie life-insurance broker Chris falls for Sarah, a fiercely alive artist dying of a brain tumor, he must choose between the cold ethics of his job and risking everything — his career, his fiancée, and his heart — to buy her dignity and a chance at meaning before she’s gone.”

When earnest, bookish Chris takes a job at Dignity Trust—buying life insurance policies from the dying—he expects a moral gray area he can skirt. Instead he meets Sarah, a fierce, bald artist with a brain tumor who refuses pity and pulls Chris out of his cautious life with wild humor, carnival dates, and daredevil art heists. As Chris wrestles with work that profits off mortality, office pressure, and a messy ex, he must choose between corporate survival and a reckless, human love that forces him to finally live authentically. A bittersweet dramedy set in gritty urban neighborhoods and glossy galleries, Dignity Trust balances dark satire with tender romance and moral reckoning.

“When, after a brutal breakup, Jamie chooses a mysterious crimson door over her friend's hand, a fame-hungry woman must accept a seductive inhabiter’s flawless beauty or lose herself — discovering that the real horror is the self-rejection that leaves her admired but emotionally hollow (horror, darkly tragic).”
