About Me |
|
| Some things about me... I'm a stay-at-home dad. I hate subject lines in e-mail. I'm passionate about the things I love but easily bored by most other things. I love my sons more than anything. For the past few years my brother Joe and I have worked with an excellent team to make several short films and one feature length film featuring the outstanding talent of William B. Davis from Fox's The X-Files. We are currently making a very successful tour on the film festival circuit with our short films, Letting Go and Against the Wind. Letting Go was made by request of the producers at Mark Burnett Productions for continued participation in the audition process for Fox Television's "On the Lot." I was one of one hundred directors (selected from more than 12,000 applicants world wide) asked to create a short film for further consideration in being cast on the program. While I didn't make the final selection, I'm pleased to have gone so far in the process, and come away with short film that has been having a highly successful run, screening and winning at numerous film festivals worldwide. Check out our film site here: www.FountainheadPictures.com "It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by sweat and dust and blood; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in worthy causes; who at the best, knows in the end of the triumph of high achievement, and who at worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." ~ Theodore Roosevelt |
