Social Improv is wrapped and I couldn’t be more thankful for everyone involved! I had a wonderful time making it with my wonderful cast and crew and I can’t wait to show it to everyone.
To my producer, Samantha Hussey, I owe you this project as without your help, this script would’ve never left the doc on my computer and putting up with me throughout the whole process. To my actors, Ella Scoresby, Finn Higginbotham, and Sam Brashear, thank you for bringing this script to life and making it even better than I initially wrote it and for matching my freak in rehearsals. To my DP, Josh Bowlin, thank you for the invaluable input and ideas you brought to me in this collaborative process. And to everyone else on the crew listed below, thank you for helping bring this vision into reality.

That’s right, man. I got in!
Tron: Legacy has always held a sweet spot in my heart, one of my favorites ever since I first watched it. The whole premise was captivating, and the music and style was unlike anything else I’d seen. Just over a month ago, I was brought on to be a part of Sisu Cinema Robotics and TJ Stephen’s Tron:Ares inspired promotional short film Protocol, showcasing their robotics work on the new blockbuster.
Getting to work on this project was one of the coolest experiences of my life, a real dream come true. I still can’t believe it myself, but it gets even crazier. Because now, you have the chance to see it on big screen! It is showing at Alamo Drafthouses NATIONWIDE before every showing of Tron: Ares. So catch it if you can, and let me know what you think!
Also, shout out to @ellascoresby for putting up with me and creating some epic fight choreography, because I would not look nearly as cool without her help 🤩

Been holding on to these for a minute, but these are definitely some of my favorites.
Even if Instagram doesn’t, do you appreciate landscape photography?
