2008 - Looking for Ms. Locklear (Feature Documentary)

We met in first grade in Ms. Locklear's class. During the summer of 2006, we decided to search for our beloved teacher. We chose not to use the internet or the telephone, but instead to rely on face-to-face contact with people. Looking for Ms. Locklear is a documentary chronicling our search, which led us far from home and into the company of a host of characters. The movie prominently features the Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina, as our search led us to the center of Lumbee culture, Pembroke, NC.

The film is screening at a number of film festivals across the country. Check out the list of screenings to the right. Become a fan on Facebook or MySpace.

2006 - One Man's Trash (Short Film)

The surreal story of two pieces of trash (a freshly written song and a dancing Santa) that find their way into the garbage and subsequently into the hearts of new, appreciative owners. The film is the epitome of do-it-yourself filmmaking. It was more or less an experiment in storytelling for us. We wrote, directed, shot, edited, scored, produced and starred in the film. It should be available soon on a compilation DVD (early 2008).

The film won Best North Carolina Comedy at the All-American Film Festival, and was an official selection at the Carborro Film Festival, the Southern Fried Flicks Film Festival, the Lake County Film Festival, and the Carolina Film and Video Festival.
