I'm
a filmmaker. I wear glasses. I was nominated for an Oscar when I was 23. I'm
28 now. Was that tumbleweed?
Actually
things are looking up - On the strength of my last short film THE SILENT CITY
(starring Cillian Murphy, Don Wycherley and Garvan Mcgrath) I got representation
with CAA in the US, (and ICM in the UK) and I'm managed by 3Arts Entertainment
(who produced A Scanner Darkly and I AM LEGEND, two of my favourite books of
all time. So my evil empire may yet clot the earth. Muahahahaha. Etc.

I've posted
a video showing visual effects breakdowns and before and after comparisons for
my short film,
Ruairi. What are you developing? You should be where Neill Blomkamp is right now. It'll happen. Good things come to those who wait, right? In the meantime, any CG bones you wanna throw our way?
Thanks for add. I expect to your making movie of AKIRA! so I supporting for you. but I think mostly It's not so easy. but you can do it! and then I've seen your short shorts. that's interesting! so I hope It's will be good! anyway good luck!

Hit me up when you're back in the states; I'd like to discuss more with you about your RED camera...
Auteur, Visionary, Shaman, Genius, what sweet honour it is being in your stellar creative Studio. Thanks so much, continued success and may the library/blog's contents inspire you some.
Wow, I just discovered your work, and am amazed. Should you ever find yourself at the Williamstown Theater Festival (Williamstown, MA, US) drop me a line!
