Some projects that received guidance, and a dollop of creativity, from me.
Once Upon a Time...in Hollywood AR Promotional Site
As a Narrative Producer working with BLKBX, I pitched concepts, reviewed the feature script and researched relevant topics. I collaborated with video editors and Getty Images to visualize and animate this nostalgic and quirky look at Quentin Tarantino's Hollywood of the sixties.
The Adventures of Starlo Von Sourdough
As a producer and collaborator on this stop-motion animated pilot, I collaborated on the script and story structure, troubleshot production issues and navigated post, festivals and marketing for this unique fantasy adventure which is being developed as an episodic series.
Treasure Planet 3-D Online Game based on the Disney film
As a creative producer for Media Revolution, I guided creative and programming teams in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Los Angeles, navigated cultural differences, and realized this fully 3-D online SmartFlash game for Disney's Treasure Planet so that it would appeal to a domestic, U.S. audience.
Eaten Alive Productions: The Origin Story
It all started with a recurring dream I had while in college. At that time, by day I worked in an office of friendly, though bureaucratic, architects. At night, I was mesmerized by the films of Terry Gilliam and David Lynch. In my dream, an office worker was attacked by a blob and slowly consumed while they were still alive — doing paperwork. I turned that idea into my first short film. Looking back on it today, it is even more surreal and absurd than I recognized at the time. In this film, a man is slowly eaten alive by a mysterious blob while his bureaucratic co-workers complain that he is just mucking things up. Things go from bad to worse, until his desiccated corpse is tossed into the trash.
As a child, I was influenced by books like The Amityville Horror and The Shining, as well as The Lord of the Rings. Later, I moved on to Kafka, Beckett and Ishiguro — and even, O'Brian and Akunin. I've alway been drawn to basking in the absurdity and surreality of life — especially when that drama is expressed in the decidedly non-surreal, grounded moments of connection between people.
My instinct is to zero in on the essence of a project, be it a film, tv show, web site or experience — and find the meaning at its core. Then, I push out along all the edges and find out exactly how far you can push these ideas and feelings while still hitting home with the audience.
I am thrilled to be working and collaborating in the world of creativity, and nothing gives me greater joy than imagining, creating and completing creative works.
I bring conceptualizing, directing, writing and producing skills to the table, keeping one foot in the gooey puddle of creative inspiration and the other in the overly-organized and practical world of structure and schedule.
Eaten Alive Productions is a reflection of its name. We are all slowly eaten alive by our experiences, All that matters is how we deal it: panic, humor, joy or quiet fortitude – staring the boa constrictor in the eyes as it slowly pulls you into its gullet.
