In
1977 I walked into a darkened theater and my life changed
forever! As soon as the opening credits of "Star Wars" hit the
screen,
I knew right then and there, I HAD to be a filmmaker! Since that faithful day, I've been making films ever since. At first small Super 8 films with friends and family mainly about running, shooting and blowing things up... to the films of today, more character driven, ensemble pieces that try to explore the human character from a different perspective. |
The
first feature we completed was "1-900" the story of two detectives in
search of a serial killer who lures her prey, using 1-900 numbers." The film did very well landing not one but two distribution deals, sold overseas in multiple markets, and screened at several film festivals. |

The
next feature, "3 Days... 3 Hours... 3 Minutes... 3 Seconds..." about a
male prostitute trying to breakout of his life on the streets, was the
product of a bet with a fellow filmmaker. One day over some beers, we started to play a game trying to figure out how long or short it would take for us to make a feature film. It was like playing "Bid a Note" from the television show, "Name that Tune." I ended up winning with three days and thus the project was born. Once completed, the film was received with rave reviews and again screened at several film festivals including, "Cinequest" in San Jose and the "Indie Memphis Film Festival"  |
| "Dog
Me: Potluck" followed up "3 Days..." After seeing a Dogme95 Film, "Fuckland" by Jose Luis Marques  on the Sundance Channel, I decided to work in this style of film, which I had used a similar process with "3 Days..." but really went full out during this time around. "Dog Me: Potluck," is the most successful film to  date from Triple Sticks Productions, screening in over 10 film festivals to date and winning nominations and awards for the film and director. It's available on DVD and became the first of our films available on "Netflix" |

After a short break, it was
back to the grindstone working on a new project
using a modified Dogme95 technique, creating a hilarious comedy about speed dating entitled, "Slow Down... You're Dating Too Fast!"  Once again the film has had done very well in film festivals around the country and is the first film from Triple Sticks Productions to be self distributed on DVD. |
| The future is bright for Triple Sticks
Productions. We are working on new scripts all of the time and
soon hope to be in production on a new project. But the bottom
line
for us... it's all about the filmmaking. It's something I have to
do, it's in my blood and what gets me out of bed everyday. I love
the possibility of what a great film can do and hope you'll take the
chance to view some of ours! |
