Short Films / Music Videos

The Dinner was written and directed by me as part the 8-week ‘Digital Filmmaking: Script to Screen’ course taught by Illyana Bocanegra at Austin School of Film in Summer 2022. A wife and husband live together in a loveless marriage. The wife is kind and hopeful, but her patience comes to a stop one fateful dinner. THE WIFE was played by Emily Mahoney and THE HUSBAND was played by J.R. Gretzer. Illyana was the Director of Photography, Sound, and Editor. This was produced by Anna Stella Wood and Julianna Reagann.

Sleepy Hollow was directed by me as part of as part of the 8-week ‘Music Video Production’ course taught by John Valley at Austin School of Film in Winter 2023. It is based on the song by Su Lee and is strictly a fan video. THE DANCER was played by Tikiri Shapiro and Shelby Higley. Emma Johnson was the Director of Photography and Colorist. Ashten Falter was the Assistant Director.
