Older Work

Following the vein of charting the vein of development as an artist, I am including some of my older videos. BINACA SPEC COMMERCIAL This was produced for an online video contest and was included among other videos on the Binaca website. It is still on their front page. The goal was to recreate a scene from a famous film and insert a Binaca product into it. I decided to use the assassination scene from the first Godfather. Not an entirely successful recreation but I think any fan of the classic film would find it amusing. BINACA SPEC COMMERCIAL 2 This one was not chosen as a finalist for the contest but I am still fond of it. This entry was a recreation of the iconic closing scene from the Humphrey Bogart Maltese Falcon, of course instead of the Maltese Falcon, it was Binaca that was "the stuff dreams were made of." NEW YORK LIFE SPEC COMMERCIAL This is another spec commercial shot for an online contest. It didn't win, but I believe it turned out well. The premise of this commercial was to illustrate the difference between promises and guarantees. I think it does that quite well. A special thanks to my recurring actor Joseph Sisco and everyone else who helped me with these largely one man band productions.

Coming Soon

Working on editing a few new videos, including an updated Demo Reel which should be posted to the site. Also, in keeping with the idea of the site and the mission of the company a brief history of Auteur Theory that this site is named after. Also, I will soon be starting a new regular series of blogs charting the filmographies of several noted Auteurs, starting with one of my favorite Directors who has a new release, Ridley Scott. The entries will trace the common threads and divergences in the works of noted Auteur filmmakers.
