A man escapes reality by entering the imaginary world of a painting to find love.

We had done a lot of outside shoots and got kicked out a park. The lead actress also got a bad case of Poison oak. It was a fun shoot and it was the first time I did a film for the Pasadena College Film Dept.

Though it is a “zombie film”, I find the moment with my daughter one of the most touching scenes I have ever done. It could have been the last moments before my character died of cancer or a disease. Great production team and fantastic leading actress who played my daughter.

A fun little short about a man who goes back in time to get even with a bully at his childhood birthday party. The main character ends up having confrontations with his parents as he tries to fix the situation at his childhood birthday. This project was a lot fun even though the wind kept blowing all the Birthday props away. The entire neighborhood was covered in birthday balloons and party favors.

A funny advertising spoof on Soaps and sitcoms. First time I ever worked with Walt Disney and a major soap star. I loved being on that sound stage.

‘Al Farooq’ follows a young Somali immigrant on his last leg financially when he stumbles across an old friend and is given a glimpse of hope, only to find out that the American dream has changed his friend. I play the role of Jeffery Owner of a small diner that the main character begs for a job. Al-Farooq was entered into the Golden Eagle Film Festival here at Cal State LA and we won two awards!!! We won Best Diversity and #1 Best Drama!

The film is about a father’s artistic skills and his perception of his own identity, as a man and as a parent. I have never worked with a director who had more passion and patients than this man. He had many obstacles in this shoot but he surpassed them and created a remarkable work of art.

A magical Mermaid suddenly appears in a man’s (my) bathtub and teaches him not to be a sexist pig and to respect women. A good piece with well shot moments. I just wish they kept the compete scene on the beach. The Plastic fins on the mermaid kept falling apart to everybody’s amusement. (run time: 00:04:52)

A comedy spoof of an eighty’s sitcom. I was the guy in the polyester suit who thought it was still the 1970’s and want’s to do a little wife swapping. (run time: 00:13:47)

When Gracie, a thirteen year-old Fundamentalist Christian, meets Heidi, an agnostic lesbian driving back from her mother’s funeral, Gracie must find a new approach to save a soul. The Hot tube scene was interesting because the water was freezing!!!!!
