Not only is he the creator of Doug Deep, Derek is also involved in every aspect of the show: Writer, Director, Producer, Editor, and Lead Actor (hey, who needs sleep anyway?). He has a knack for storytelling, combined with over a decade working in production & post-production.
Conceived during the quarantine months of 2020, Doug Deep was thoughtfully written as a project that could be made entirely remotely. Originally intended to be a short film, it was soon realized that there was a bigger story to be told, so the full story arc was laid out over a ten-episode season. Even though it was written and filmed during Covid, there is zero mention of the pandemic in the series – not only to keep the show evergreen, but to also give the audience a much-needed break from the doom & gloom of real life.
