About Me

Here's my latest short I wrote and produced. And I play Jesus.My team (the Hi-Def Chef's) made the finals (top 15 of 186) of the National Film Challenge. We also won the award for BEST ACTING 2006 for the movie called "Ashes to Ashes". If you go to www.filmchallenge.com/results2006.htm you can view the award winning short movie that I wrote, produced, and acted in. The National Film Challenge is a contest that gives a team ONE weekend to write, rehearse, shoot, edit, and get written permission to use any location, people, and music used in the short 4-8 minute movie. Each movie has to have 3 elements in it. 1. a character (Sam Pinkerton who is a Pastor). 2. a prop (chalkboard). and 3. a line ("Throw cold water on it!"). Each team is given a genre (like comedy, action, horror, etc...) Ours is "Holiday Film".
