Director Statement

I have always felt drawn to comedic content, but never daring, until this project, to dive into it myself, but with how easily the script wrote itself out in front of me and smiles and laughter it created even on the page, I knew this is what I wanted to follow.
To be able to bring laughter to someone even on a tough day in their life, really makes me want create more films.
Keep it in the family was created so organically, that everything just fell into place, it was such a pleasure watching the actors bring the characters to life, and seeing everything come together in the edit. I hope you enjoy watching keep it in the Family as much as I did making it!
