Cliff Hensley studied theatrical directing and script analysis extensively at university in Atlanta, and film development, directing, and post-production at a trade school environment in Los Angeles.
His first screenplay was a semi-finalist in the inaugural Project: Greenlight, and his first independent feature film was the recipient of two critical awards, including Best Picture and Best Director.
He also dabbles in prose, and his acclaimed short fiction work is available through a number of electronic venues.
He can be found in the cities of Atlanta, Phoenix, and Los Angeles--but not at the same time, unless you're really good.
Now, as for the important stuff...
You scored as Neo, the "One". Neo is the computer hacker-turned-Messiah of the Matrix. He leads a small group of human rebels against the technology that controls them. Neo doubts his ability to lead but doesn't want to disappoint his friends. His goal is for a world where all men know the Truth and are free from the bonds of the Matrix.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who wants to make some movies. Financiers? Writers? Photographers? You need a Director or Producer? I'm game.
Humans and Transhumans (Posthumans need not apply).
Women who don't get off on hurting men.
Anyone who sees the world for the rapidly evolving global fascist mega-state it is, and would rather live a life of liberty and chaos and be crushed beneath the cogs than be a cog themselves.
