Here are some videos, commercials and films that I've been a part of through Dobler's Pen and various other film companies.

The Date
 
The Date was Dobler's Pen's final forray into the world of the 48 Hour Film Project. We shot this one in Summer of 2006.
 
I co-wrote and co-star.

The Golden Tiki of Djbuti-Buti: Episode 71
(or The Adventures of Naked Man)
 
This is a film that I co-wrote and acted in with Ken Arnold. Ken is an actor/filmmaker from Annapolis, and a good friend of mind.
 
We're hoping that the Naked Man series can become an on-going web series.

Code of Silence
 
Here are a couple clips from a movie that I did for The Discovery Channel back in 2004. We filmed in Suffolk, VA.

6:41
 
6:41 was the first film from Dobler's Pen Productions. It was part of the 48 Hour Film Project in 2003.
 
I co-wrote the film, and star as Ted. (We always find it interesting how close we came in tone and appearance to NBC's The Office. Ted/Sarah in 6:41 is very similar to Jim/Pam on The Office...and pre-dates the show by a couple years.)

Break-Up
 
This is a national commercial that I did, which was picked up by various cable providers across the country.

Shutter
 
This is another of the Dobler's Pen films. I co-wrote, and am the spooky "MAN" in the camera.
 
Shutter won the Audience Favorite award in the 2004 DC 48 Hour Film Project.

m.o.s.
 
"m.o.s." is a filmmaking shorthand for "without sound." For the 2005 48 Hour Film Project, Dobler's Pen drew the Silent Film category, and this is what we came up with.
 
 

Comfort The Dead
 
This film was by Oozing Sarcasm and was my first experience in the 48 Hour Film Project.
 
The film won Best Cinematography...and in my opinion, should have won the Best Film award for Washington DC that year.
