Director Statement

There is a lot of satisfaction in the ability to control all the facets of a production, color, sound, texture. Having a miniaturized production situation enables concentration of one's energy and vision on the creation of the film in a way that is highly personal.

I make the characters from found objects, cardboard, wire. The sets are constructed in the trailer that I call home and studio. I perform all post-production in this space as well.
