My projects have 3 phases: 1) story and character development through acting improvisation; 2) scene rehearsal and production design; 3) production with continuity.

The audio in this video was created by Sylvia Toy.

Please note that “digital creator” is nowhere on my resume.

I make Arthouse movies in my livingroom. I spent 17 years as a solo theater performer/playwright. That provided me roots for developing script, character and production design using performance art and Method Acting techniques. My movies are rehearsed and produced with continuity.

MOTHER: nonlinear narrative whose characters are high-functioning mentally ill housemates. The story is not autobio, but in 50 years since my first therapist at college, I’ve had diagnoses of Bipolar 1, Schizoaffective Disorder, Major Depression, General Anxiety Disorder, Phobia, Eating Disorder.

Gorgeous.

Hours after shooting this scene; and doing housework and dinner prep while my iPhones uploaded, it felt like my characters had really been in my livingroom.
