We created this pilot with Venice Beach Freakshow owner Todd Ray. It was eventually picked up by Endemol and sold to AMC. It currently airs are part of their Thursday night reality block. I also composed the theme for the current version as well as much of the in show music.
This pilot presentation/sizzle was created for the Swedish production company VW MANAGEMENT. It is currently in development.
A make up test/proof of concept we shot for a horror film we are currently developing. It is a sequel/re-imagining of my first feature THE CURSE OF EL CHARRO (Showtime/Paramount).
BRIDE OF EL CHARRO - MAKE UP TEST
BRIDE OF EL CHARRO - HAND PROCESSED FILM TEST
A small portion of our film BRIDE OF EL CHARRO will be told in flashback. We want this section to look and feel like an old, damaged silent film. To accomplish this we will shoot the section on film and hand process the footage with a cocktail of among other things coffee and OJ. This test was shot on a single roll of super8 film.
SACRAMENT - TRAILER
SACRAMENT is film I directed based on an experimental theater piece created by choreographer Natalie Metzger and composer Robert Allaire. The film follows a woman who is dragged into a cult ritual surrounding the creation and destruction of a strange god. Currently in post.
