Films that stay with you
Built with startup discipline

The work

I make films that work as films first. The shift in perspective happens underneath. By the time you notice it, you've already taken it home.

Each film runs like its own small company - investors see the real economics, transparent recoupment, the waterfall before they wire, and the actual cash flow after delivery.

Tools will keep changing. My taste and mission won't. Building an independent studio with a steady pipeline. Each film is commercial enough to fund the next, meaningful enough to be worth making.

Film, treated as an alternative asset

If you allocate to early-stage startups or alt-assets, independent film sits in the same risk and return bracket, with a higher floor. Each film runs like its own small company, and the economics are transparent before you wire.
