I lived in France for 9 years in the 90's (so don't ask me any pop culture questions from that decade).
Did some Techno music while there. Had 2 riffs ripped off that went on to be #1 hits in France... darn sharks!
Now I'm back in the US recording music and writing songs. I'm also a professor at SLCC in the film department... send me your kids!
I've scored 2 feature length films, and have produced/directed/shot/edited/scored/etc. a few short films of my own that were submitted to Sundance... just started production on a full length feature film.
A short film I shot was in the Cannes Film Festival in 2015... raised funding to make it into a feature. I was also an actor in a movie that premiered at Sundance 2015.
