Filmmaker Statement

I love the endless array of creative possibilities and challenges involved in capturing a moment in time. I am continually learning about new filmmaking techniques and always pushing the creative boundaries of what can be done with my digital camera. I see filmmaking as having 2 elements: one is the technical ability to capture the moment, the other is the story. The real magic is using both elements together to their fullest to make something compelling that is stronger than its parts, each enhancing the other. It is this magic that I love and that which makes film unique. This unity between technique and story has the power to move people, and that which I am always driven to pursue.
