Hi, kids ...

2010
I'm back from a 3-year sabbatical and pumped for this years' production schedule.
bullet I was thrilled to write/produce/direct the short film with music "Water" featuring singer-songwriter Chloe Charles. DVD release is October 1 at The Rivoli.
bullet Once again I am wearing all three hats for a short film/music video for the uniquely talented Serafin. Currently in pre-production, it launches October 21.
bullet Next, I am co-writing/producing/directing a 45-minute documentary (title TBA) slated for production in October/November.
bullet Last but not least, I will write/produce/direct "The Woods" featuring The 4Qs this Winter.

2007
bullet "Letter to Liza" screened at the Regent Park and WILDSound Film Festivals.

2006
bullet In March, Cayle Chernin and I produced "Letter to Liza" from digital guru Jason J. Brown. The first of the Wicked People productions, LTL has screened at several festivals, and earned a nomination for Best Experimental at its Female Eye Film Festival debut. I was delighted to sit on the panel following our two screenings at Rendezvous With Madness Film Festival.
bullet In April and May, we shot "Tea With Mother," the demo episode for Michael Mortensen's Wicked People: the series. A teaser screening at The Female Eye Film Festival June 2006 delighted the audience.
bullet Also in April, my neighbour Donna and I appeared in the debut episode of Scream TV's reality series "This is What Happened ...", which premiered in August and continued to be broadcast over the subsequent 3+ years.
bullet In July, Wicked People was selected from more than forty entries as one of five finalists in ACTRA Toronto's Pitch the Networks Contest, and earned recognition as runner-up.
bullet Visit the Wicked People website for more information about the above production.

As well ...
bullet My second feature screenplay The Has-Been (a comedy) is now making the rounds.
bullet Hauntings continue, but I have moved residences and am currently writing a non-fiction book about these experiences. Click here for "ghost" photographs.

Have fun, kids! And never let them get you down!
