Tell us a bit about your organization and what your specialty is in the film and video space.

My channel focuses on the creative decisions made by many big-budget sci-fi movies. I aim to relay the impact of these decisions to the eyes/ears of a more general audience.

What is your organization’s ethos and how does it set you apart from industry competitors?

My focus is, and has always been, finding the intangibles that makes a project complete and using that as a fulcrum for longer analysis.

How can people join or learn more about what you do?

Tell us about your Telly Award winning piece. What’s the story behind it?

My piece was a thesis about the ambitious creative decisions behind Dune: Part 2. I was so pulled by the scope of its details that I had to write out a thesis on why it worked, and to what extent it was setting/raising the bar for Sci-Fi directors in the industry.

What are you most proud of about this piece? What was your biggest challenge during production and how did you solve it?

I am most proud of the fact that others resonated with it as well. It’s always a gamble when writing videos on whether or not it will reach the right audience but sharing that experience with so many others still means a lot to me.

Do you have any advice to other filmmakers based on your career or your team’s approach to work?

Learn what you love about film, and why. Find the root of it.

Can you share a behind the scenes story or fun fact about the making of your piece?

It took about a month to put together and publish, and it was the first time I used traditional storyboarding sketches as a means of managing the visuals, sound, music, and color-theory of the project.

Tell us about the most memorable response you got from this work.

One comment that really spoke to my appreciation for film on a larger scale: “something to consider, there is only 100ish years of cinema, there are thousands of years in painting, we are only in the infancy of the art of cinema.”
