Director Statement

While working in a small cubicle in customer service, a colleague of mine suggested that it would be a funny idea to take the old adage, “He’d be late to his own funeral” and actually play something like that out. So I wrote a screenplay, always intending on giving it a go. Five years and a church full of friends and loved ones later, I did.

This is my first film, shot all in a two-day stretch near my home in Atlanta, Georgia. A few weeks in my wife and I’s spare bedroom - turned editing suite and yoga studio and I think I’ve finally created what was first in my mind. Please consider me for your lineup and let’s give our audience a smile.
