Welcome and thank you for visiting my collection of films and television
shows. I have been making films professionally since 1994 and my
career has brought me full circle back to the independent film industry.
In between I’ve learned a great deal about storytelling while producing
and directing for such reality television shows like “Cops” and “Trauma
Center.” Nothing like chasing a drunken, armed, thief in the middle of
the night to teach you how to cover a story with the essential shots while
also making sure you don’t get shot! During this time I’ve developed
quite a large filmmaking skill-set, but the amazing thing is that I’ve also
learned that my subjects tell the story much better than me. Sometimes,
it seems, the filmmaker in me only gets in the way. That’s why my latest
films, “Fresh Women” and “A Christmas in Tent City” all strive to give a
voice to the people or groups in society that the mainstream media
seem to ignore.
I hope you enjoy sampling my films and I look forward to hearing your
thoughts.
All my best,
Mike
