'To help them see what you mean ...'I write, design and direct short movies to help people and organizations tell their stories. I've been in the business since 1981, creating marketing films, TV spots and other visual media for both small and globally active enterprises — including nonprofit and scientific groups.... That's how I earn money. To lose money, I do personal creative projects — like short dramatic films, no-budget docus, underground music videos, sound plays, fiction, paintings and music
