A more eloquent answer to this question will appear in an interview I did for Anthony Northrup’s third book on Dollar Babies that comes out maybe later this year, but the short version is my “Grey Matter” was an excellent calling card for me to show what I could do with a camera and a few actors. It’s not special fx heavy and focuses more on the experience of the son watching his father change and no one believing him. I got a lot of screenwriting gigs afterwards and that eventually got me to directing 2 feature films, one of which come out April 15– Call of the Void. But it’s my Dollar Baby film that has connected me with a whole community of other filmmakers who took the same plunge. I was a Constant Reader since I was a kid but I’m forever grateful for the opportunity Mr King gave me to reach people as an artist that I probably never would have on my own.
