Director Statement

In 2017, I had the great pleasure of being an Assistant Director at The Reno Little Theater. We were given the opportunity to produce our own play or film. I decided that I would shoot a short film using 1 android phone, 1 tripod and 1 boom mic. Filming was challenging but the end result was a success.

The Sci-fi short film is Experimental and Artistic.

The Film tells the story of our advancing technology, our relationship between technology and society, the collapse of Mankind and Government control.
