As a filmmaker with over 29 years of experience, I have worked on many different types of projects. From music videos to feature films. From corporate videos to TV programming. I guess you can say I have been around the block. I have written, shot, directed and edited. If you have needs for a video or film presentation, I hope that you may call upon me. My work speaks for itself so welcome to my site. From time to time I shall post some of my
personal films and those that I have edited for Pro Image Group, my full time position as Senior Editor.
Enjoy!!

As a companion piece to Monster Mash, I give you a 22 year fascination with the Phantom of the Opera. I have always loved the movies and read the book. This is a music video that uses scenes from the Broadway show, some music videos, the 1925, 1943, and 1962 Hammer film. I did this in 1990 and it looks like I could use some better looking elements. Oh well . . .
