After writing, directing and editing my short film, “There Is No Try,” at The Manhattan Film Institute, MFI asked me and my Nightwork Studio partner, Whitney Matheson, to double-down and co-write, co-direct and edit another short film, starring Madeleine Morrell, Max Morrell, and Zachary Deakyne called “The Tip.”
You can watch THE TIP here.
You can catch up on or re-watch my movie, THERE IS NO TRY, and Whitney’s movie, CONTINUITY ERRORS. Let us know what you thought of ‘em!
IDW recently published BEST OF GODZILLA, and featured a great story I drew over a decade ago, written by Bobby Curnow. Here is a PREVIEW with some of my art.
I just made a Dino Summer 2022 playlist!
