Dr. Thomas Sproul tries to rid the world of his greatest creation. His colleagues try to stop him, while his autistic son slows him down.
This was the first film I directed outside of college. I entered it into several film festivals. It played at the deadCENTER Film Festival in Oklahoma City and The Norman Transcript did a nice review of the film which was cool to read. This film was also my initial entry into the “On the Lot” reality television show contest, produced by Steven Spielberg and Mark Burnett. It was picked as one of the best 100 films out of over 12,000 entries and it landed me a camera interview and opportunity to make a second film for the producers of the show. Ultimately I did not get picked to star on the show, but it was fun none the less. Lastly, this film got me my first directors credit on the IMDB. Hopefully I can keep adding to the list!
