About me: Film Director, Writer, Actor. yeah yeah... yawn... I do good stuff good creative stuff! I work in television production, mainly channel 9, and run my own indie film company FixedPoint Productions with partner Paul.
I love science fiction and fantasy. My favourite fiction writers are Geogre R.R. Martin, Lynn Flewelling, Jennifer Fallon. My film favourites are Serenity, anything Vin Diesel and the Firefly series. I'm also a big fan of British comedies like Black Books, Spaced or Black Adder. In the past I've loved Roar, The X Files, Buffy and I'm ashamed to say Xena, even Charmed.
I'm also strangely obsessed with House and 24.
Anyhoo, feel free to write to me if you need an director or producer or someone to throw off a building - I'm a workaholic and proud of it :)
Who I'd like to meet: Whatever you're beliefs, The Desiderata:
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.
Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let not this blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world.
Hey Cassie, yeah it has been a while, too long... how's everything? Did you check out my video clip?? Our little bit of fun on the home handycam, the star being my mum with the pig's trotter, lol... Any exciting projects on the agenda? D.
Possibility's this film I've been working on for the last 6 months. First shooting day is Monday which I'm really excited about. It's about a young couple named Adrian and Julie who are going through a pregnancy scare and how they deal with it before they know for sure if they are expecting a child or not.
I've got a few projects in the pipeline after this, mainly a documentary which I want to shoot next year. I checked out you and Paul's FixedPoint films and I really like. I'll have to corner you sometime at work and chat to you about them.
