The Benefits of Living w/ a Hype Man
I got the idea for this sketch after listening to some 90’s Hip-Hop, specifically listen to Busta Rhymes and his hype man ‘Spliff Star’. Then I just took that idea and wondered how living w/ a Hype Man (which is essentially a motivational accomplice) would be.
Thanks to Matt & Anthony Engelbrecht for being a part and doing some amazing improv (especially the bedroom scene).
Nadine Marie – Stellar
Fun project to work on with the talented Nadine Marie from Toronto. Shot this over a few weeks in the summer time in Toronto, Guerilla style of course. Always fun to edit these types of videos because A) the music is good – and you start humming and singing it during the following weeks B) Very easy on the eyes

5 Days of Therapy Trailer
When Therapy goes Wrong, for the Therapist
Please check out my Trailer for ‘5 Days of Therapy’. I thought it would be interesting to explore the therapeutic process from the Therapist’s point of view. Everyday they sit and listen to various problems & issues that gripe the mind & heart – this film explores what happens when a Therapist is unable to separate her work & personal life. Everyday she has a new patient, a new problem; which she tries to solve in her own personal life, and with her own personal relationships. It becomes increasingly apparent throughout the days that even though she is helping patients, she needs help herself.
This abstract trailer was shot to illustrate and showcase the direction of where the film will be heading, and the subsequent issues that will be explored.
I wrote the original screenplay, and shot the trailer in late 2012, and I am looking for funding avenues.

Honey Matthews Media Work
This project was for a start-up fashion line called ‘Honey Matthews’, was a fun editing and post production job — mainly fun because the video was short, but still took some time to find the right look.
I also worked on some of the visual layout for the branding of some of the images on the blog.
