JULY 11, 2005
I'm new to this business of blogging, but not new to the use of the pen. I started writing in the 7th grade at St. Aloysius Catholic Elementary School in Cleveland, Ohio. I finished directing 4 or 5 feature mini Digital movies in 2003. I'm starting a whole new series of films from July 15 - 20th, 2005. They will be presented on the international film festival circuit around February of 2006.
I'll start off with the Pan African Film Festival, the Berlin Film Festival, Sundance Film Festival and end with the Cannes Film Festival. All of these projects are hand-made, personal films, miniscule budgets and interesting human stories. There are no special effects and the people who populate my films are pretty much real people.
I attended UCLA and my best friend at the time was Charles Burnett. He is currently directing Danny Glover and Carl Lumbly in Namibia Africa. Their film is about Freedom Fighters.
