Clint took a roundabout way to independent film production . Having always enjoyed films but never truly sought out the spotlight, he chose a different path and educated himself in web development. Having only trained lightly in video production when earning his Bacheloers in Visual Communication Technologies from BGSU, Clint began working on independent film when his wife wrote the feature horror film, Pi Day Die Day (2016). Now he co own's One Stoplight Productions and works in production and editing primarily.
This story came from the fears and experiences of struggling to have our first child. As a husband, there is only so much you can do to help along the health of your spouse and child, the rest is up to fate. While my wife and I now have a healthy young boy, we could only imagine the pain that someone would feel and the emotions one would experience losing a spouse so soon after bringing a child to life and into your family.
