The relationship between the D’agnese brothers and I began in 2008 with a simple photo shoot that gained their trust as clients after viewing professional and high quality work. Today, they have been branded, photographed and developed into a force to be reckoned with alongside having an outstanding music video that only adds to their ammunition.

To date, 'Come Over After' has won five first place awards nationally and has been an official selection at festivals worldwide. With a crew nearing one hundred employees and volunteers, it’s my second film piece in the music circuit that I directed and edited and I look forward to continuing my efforts in film making with the same amount of passion and quality throughout.

Showcasing my directing, editing and producing skills together for the very first time, 'Freedom' won the hearts of many as it brought home 9 official selections and awards worldwide. Working with a $300 budget and having less than four days of production to film and edit in its completion, it was this first impression in the film and arts communities that allowed me to continue my work with other musicians to this day.

Freedom brought home second place at the Bayou City Film Festival as well as became an ADAA Semi-Finalist in 2009!

“Unconditional” follows the lives of two men (Brian Patterson and Michael Foster) over a two day period as they prepare to celebrate their love for one another by having a commitment ceremony in the back yard of their Sanford, Florida home.

As director and editor, Unconditional is my first feature documentary that spans over a year of hard work and honest storytelling, giving integrity to the lifestyles of the LGBT community by not forcing viewers to deal with controversial enemies that may come from the heterosexual community abroad.

Evangelin was a local Orlando band seeking to make use of the video footage captured of them at a local recording studio. My challenge was to take the limited amount of footage given to me and edit a video that felt remotely interesting to watch for the standard viewer.

‘Yelling In Whispers’ was an interesting and fun challenge in that it gave me the opportunity to make myself more aware of the many filters and stylized effects that Final Cut had to offer. In the end I feel this video shows my abilities as an editor with limited resources and time constraints equaling approximately eight hours.

Documentary shorts provide a challenging and fun way for the director tell a story in a limited amount of time. If done well, audiences will be able to connect with the message in a way that briefly gives them insight into something they either knew existed or saw or provides them with additional information about subjects they were already aware of.

First Street Lounge was my first attempt at creating a documentary short with these goals in mind. Filmed in Sanford, Florida in 2008 the film dives into a small cabaret bar in quaint town right off Main Street. It has been showcased at the Orlando Museum of Art’s film maker exhibit as well as won a first place award at FSU’s Ace Awards event in Orlando.

Darren Deicide stars alongside Marilyn Mansfield and James Hodgeson in Gabriel Haze's 4th directorial music video art piece titled "The Cocaine Song". Shot on location in a tight abode of Jersey City, the video has conflicts with media as a whole and the embodiment of music itself.

The "Napalm, Death and Fire" singer has really brought root to a visual masterpiece that most may find shocking or offensive but in the end really brings home the idea that television has gone too far.
