Just a report I had to do on P.T. Anderson, the director of Boogie Nights, Magnolia, Hard Eight, and Punch Drunk Love. This film preceded my Quick Quip series, but I think you can see it beginning to surface.
A scene from the film "Gods and Monsters" in which Whale and Clay have their first "modeling" session. This was filmed for my directing class at Ithaca college.
This is a project I made two years ago to explain to petulent High School sophomores why they had to pay attention in English Class. I think it works. If for nothing else, to sell the "Handbook for Writers."
This is another assignment from my directing class: to produce a scene from your chosen film in just ONE TAKE...meaning no cuts...meaning the actors had no buffer. Fortunately, mine rocked.
Just a quick update video to give all my faithful fans (assuming there are any left) a peek into what I've been up to.

Nick comes home looking for his registration to give to a waiting police officer but finds a dead body in his house instead!
This dark farce features Nick Crosby, Kelly Gilks, Amanda Polley, and Mike Corbett. It was filmed in Maine in the weeks before I left for Los Angeles and is, essentially, the last project I'll have done with them for quite a while.
Enjoy.
This is an assignment for Directing Class, which required us to produce a scene from an already-made film, but without dialogue or noise in general. It was shot on a Panasonic AG-DVX100B. Please feel free to rate and comment.
