About Me

Hi, I'm Mark. I have strange sleeping habits and participate in lounging contests with friends.The movies above are the ones I made back in film school. There is a little info below for each.Dinner Conversations is a experimental/horror/surrealist/dark comedy about a confrontation that arises amid a decaying turkey dinner between two people who wear white masks and live in a black void, post-apocalyptic industrial wasteland. Featured on IFC's Media Lab Shorts Uploaded.Giving Thanks is a documentary I did during the Thanksgiving Banquet at a homeless shelter and kitchen in Joliet.The Box is a silent horror/experimental/surrealist film I did back in my Production I class at Columbia. It's about a guy who receives a mysterious box, and is thrown into an alternate reality to confront events in his past that lead up to the breakup of him and his fiancée.Maxwell Silver Hammer is a post-sync-sound, experimental/horror/comedy about a guy named John who is looking for the perfect hammer.Television City Dreams is an experimental/horror/satire film I shot for my Production III Experimental Film class, and my first on DV, rather than film. It's a nightmare in reality television.Nightmare is also an experimental/horror film I shot for my Production III Experimental Film class. Like Television City Dreams, it is also shot on DV rather than film. Nightmare is about a man who is told about a dream HE had the previous night, and not all is as it seems.This is a trailer for a not-so-upcoming film by Matt Hanson, and myself. Yeah, that's me on the toliet.Gore scenes from a boss movie...http://youtube.com/manzelc
