Artist Statement of Work
Tell us about your work (style, approach, philosophy, subject and/or theme):
As a filmmaker I've always felt it was my duty to capture energy. With most of my work being music videos it was always crucial to create an environment in which the artist(s) could express themselves in the truest way possible. As I begin to direct short films I found the responsibility was the same. Create a safe space for the magic to happen and then take a step back and watch it go BOOM. Ultimately, I'd say approach is and will always be to strike a balance on set...find peace and then allow the chaos of storytelling and performance erupt!
