About Me

This myspace is mostly used for playlists for my show, The Indie Connection, which airs on 91.3 WKMS at 11 pm on Saturdays. In addition to being able to listen within a two hour radius of Murray, you can listen online at wkms.org to the streaming feed as well._______________________________________________________ ________________________________ About me sans the show:Film, digital filmmaking and scriptwriting are my passions. I wish I had a more passionate way to say that, but I lost my thesaurus.I started out with cheesy stop motion videos involving my GI Joes and TMNT figures, and have gravitated onto more complex projects. In a bit of irony, I have now turned back to those cheesy stop motion videos as "fillers" between bigger projects. My wife and most people say that it's a reason for me to continue playing with my toys well into adulthood. I say...well...they're right.

My most recent (completed) work...

..

The most recent (completed) live-action movie that I worked on with a super talented group of individuals is Ward Something. The official description, courtesty of Daniel Trump, is that WS is "a slightly absurd tone film about the drawbacks and rewards of creativity and inspiration. In 'Ward Something', the Muse not only has to be chased and found, but she also has to be paid before she gives."

It premiered at the River's Edge Film Festival in Paducah's Maiden Alley Cinema in August of 2007; although it's not quite as pretty as it was on the big screen, hopefully you'll still enjoy it. I also hope to retrack the audio at some point, but for now this is the viewable cut. Any feedback (via google video) would greatly be appreciated!

Here's another talking picture! Everyman: A Romantic Comedy. Hope you enjoy it...feel free to leave feedback, good or bad. The only thing I ask is that you don't be a total jack rear by taking, copying, or stealing any part (or the whole) of this work, thus screwing me, the actors, or the musicians featured in the movie. Thanks!

The music video for "Gravity" by the October. DP'd and organized the crew for this one.

My Interests

Perhaps I should have some deep comment to make about everything that happened tonight, but I really don't. Maybe it is the love talking, maybe it is the booze. I dunno. But, the video will explain al...
