Services

What I
actually do.

Four things, and the crew calls that keep me honest about all four.

02the work

The work

Hire me for the
hard part.

01

Producing

The whole apparatus: schedule, budget, crew, gear, locations, contingencies. One build plan everyone works from, with margin designed in on purpose.

  • Build plan & schedule
  • Budget & tracking
  • Crew & vendor booking
  • Locations & logistics
  • Risk & contingency
02

Directing

Performance first, coverage that serves the cut. I come in with a shot list I'm willing to abandon and a plan that makes abandoning it survivable.

  • Script breakdown
  • Shot listing & blocking
  • Casting & rehearsal
  • On-set direction
03

Writing & development

Original scripts and development work, from premise to a draft that a crew can actually shoot inside a real budget.

  • Original screenplays
  • Development & punch-up
  • Production-aware rewrites
04

Post & delivery

Cutting my own work and other people's. Assembly through picture lock, plus the delivery pass that gets it out the door in the right shapes.

  • Assembly & picture edit
  • Trailer & social cutdowns
  • Delivery & versioning
03built with margin

How it runs

Built with margin.

Margin is an engineering word. It's the room you design in on purpose, so when something goes wrong — and it will — you're not out of runway. Most productions run with none. Every job I take runs on the same three beats — trade study, build plan, debrief.

04crew calls

Also available

Crew calls.

I still take crew calls — gaffer, G&E, sound, AD, script — with people I like working with. It's the fastest way I know to keep learning how a set actually runs, and it means when I'm producing I know exactly what I'm asking a department to do.
