Comic artist, actor, filmmaker, writer and all around barrel of laughs.
Has anyone uploaded a film to MeVue? How was your experience with them?

And they use Stripe to process payments. Is that legitimate? I got a little weirded out when they asked for my SSN.

My fellow creatives, what makes a villain totally unsympathetic?

We had one bit of advice in film school that I now find ironic "Don't cast your friends, use actors!"
Now, ironically, most of my friends are actors. Great ones. So I don't know what to do!

As I prepare the storyboards, look at the script, creature designs, vehicle concepts and ideas for fight choreography. I wonder what I’ve got myself into! It doesn’t matter if it is a lot of work. No one ever said filmmaking was easy, but the process is a blast and the results will last forever!

Some screen captures from my latest film, Don. I've been testing out some color grades. And yes, that last photo is me without a beard. See? I have acting range! #actor #filmmaker #director #indiefilm #editor #film #postproduction

Been designing creatures for the movie as I write it. I’m not going to lie, it is my wish that this gets a kickass action figure line someday.

Just had one of my wildest, craziest script ideas that manages to combine action, sci-fi and horror! Now to start outlining this baby!

So what makes a character relatable to you? Shared experiences, similar outlooks, or a wish fulfillment aspect?

A throwback shot to my friend Lindsay Arends first film. I was beyond honored that she picked me to co-star in her directorial and writing debut. I also learned so much from watching David Comeaux work behind the camera. Hope to act a lot more in 2025! #acting #onlocation #film #star

Just a friendly reminder that, as an actor, it is important to have goals and dream roles. I knew I’d consider myself a professional once I was covered in stage blood and laughing manically. #dreams #goals #youcandoit #inspiration

So, how do we feel about an indie superhero movie? Is the genre played out, or would you be willing to watch a good one!

Going through my story folder and realizing that I have a lot of post-apocalyptic stories/scripts… wonder what a psychologist would make out of that.

Two horror related drawings from a while ago. I liked how these turned out. #horror #artist #portrait #halloween #classic #karloff

As far as horror goes, I have three ideas I am excited about writing. 1. Ghost. 2. Bigfoot. 3. Slasher. Understand that one day I'll make all of these, but I'm debating which one to write first.

As I wrap up post production on two features, I am debating what my next film should be. Action? Horror? Fantasy? What would you all be interested in working on?

Working on my latest film, DON, based on the novel DON QUIXOTE. So proud of how the cast came together, and I can't wait for them to see the film.

Here now! Excited to post more art/creations here.
