TRAINING VIDEOS
My company has produced more than 200 short training videos for various clients. Most of these programs are for emerging franchises, where I would work with the various HR departments and company owners to create a training program that included videos and evaluation materials. Then I would incorporate them into various Learning Management Systems, or work with their IT departments to create the LMS.

FEATURE FILMS
"Cheerleader Ninjas" (2002) – Spoof Comedy Trailer
Roles: Writer, Producer, Director, First Cut Editor
This film originated in the mid-1990s with the goal of making and selling a film directly to the rental video market. Back then, this was a popular pipeline for beginning filmmakers because it allowed them to make a movie for a lower budget, without expensive stars, and get a quick return on investment. My business partner and I had no interest in trying to get into a festival. We were both fans of goofy comedies like "Airplane" and "The Naked Gun," so we tested the funniest titles we could think of, and "Cheerleader Ninjas" won. The film was shot on Super-16mm and first edited on a standard linear editing system, before getting access to an early Avid non-linear edit system. By 2001, the direct-to-video market was gone since most of the major rental outlets were controlled by studios. I cold-queried a great entertainment lawyer in LA who got me both foreign and domestic distribution with Lions Gate in two weeks. It was released on DVD in 2002 and now streams on Tubi and Amazon. Skills demonstrated: market research, fundraising, scriptwriting, project management, location scouting, film scheduling, crew research and hiring, budgeting, actor auditions and management, directing, post-production management, and distribution.

"Back Slash" (2006) – Horror-Comedy Trailer
Roles: Writer, Producer, Director, First Cut Editor
My attempt to make a horror-comedy similar to "The Evil Dead" tapped into the low-budget, direct-to-video horror genre while still clinging to my comedy roots. We ran into the usual student-filmmaker problems of changing locations, actor issues, tech stumbles (we used an early version of production management software that stopped working while out on location), and bad weather (we filmed much of the movie outdoors in the Colorado mountains). I learned enough about handling filming difficulties to write a textbook. Fight scenes were choreographed by Rocky Mountain Stunts and Mark Grove. We secured distribution with Below-the-Radar Films, which went bankrupt shortly after. Nobody ever said indie filmmaking was easy! Skills demonstrated: Market research, fundraising, scriptwriting, project management, location scouting, film scheduling, hiring, budgeting, actor auditions and management, directing, post-production management, and distribution.
