You can now catch my student thesis film "Down to the Bone" on Amazon Prime as part of Twillerama's animated adult film showcase! It's been an honor to have my short in the company of such a fun, fucked up program that packs some major talent. If you haven't had the chance to catch Morgan Miller's traveling film fest, I suggest you check it out! Just put the kids to bed first. Or don't. They're not my kids, why should I care?
