| Introduction | I Produce, Line Produce, Production Manage, and Consult on Commercials, Industrials, Television Shows, Webisodes, Live Events, and Indie Features. I read scripts, provide coverage, and develop projects. I breakdown, budget, schedule, pitch, propose, close, negotiate, spend, reconcile, research, network, strategize, market, collaborate, consult, wheel, deal, and deliver. I face challenges, solve puzzles and plan ahead. I’ve worked with butterflies, penguins, dogs, maggots, horses, cats, flies, a taxidermy molded shark, babies, kids, entourages, difficult clients, movie stars, musicians, politicians, pro athletes, strippers, crack addicts, prostitutes, thieves, and murderers. I’ve shot, stabbed, and set people on fire, decapitated heads, drilled holes in arms, and smashed in skulls. I’ve shut down busy roads and highways to create an accident, raced a NASCAR car down Peachtree St, and faked a hurricane in Miami. I’ve shot 100 spots in 15 days with only a MoCo and an Arriflex, and taught Himalayan monks and grade school kids how to make movies. I can do 100 things at once, work 52 hours straight, stay on budget, and still make a damn good cup of coffee. I do film and I love it. |
