While this and other sites have been screwing around hunting for the next music video director, I've done it on my own.

I've just been signed with a major music and concert video production company as a director.

Selected Reviews of the Yahoo Top 25 POP - June 2006

Girlfriend / Avril Lavigne - I'll I can say is girlfriend, if you are going to try this genre of video go back and watch Cindy Lauper. If you are going to do campy, do it right.

Extraordingary / Mandy Moore - Mandy always does it right, with style and class. Although, not at the top of the pop music ladder, her approach is more about longevity and less about a quick buck. Great business. Original and interesting, "Extraordinary" if only for… Continue

Excellent work, man. Your creativity and professionality is inspiring, and your policy on music videos set in warehouses is exactly the same as mine (although I've extended mine to music videos set at high school/college house parties and anything that resembles a dock/construction site). I'm kinda just getting started in this whole business, and I've had success so far in the past few months with the few bands I've worked with--although still haven't had a chance to work with anything that resembles a "budget," so I've learned to make do with what I can. Sorry the compression's so terrible on my videos--any idea how to fix that so they don't look like crap on here?

June 2007 - Currently in pre-production for two videos for Country/Southern Rock artist Charlie Scott. Hopefully, this will be shot later this month depending on tracks that are being mixed in Nashville as week write/speak. Also several other videos sitting on the back burner waiting for the artists to stop touring.
