Here is some video of my pitch to Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman, two of my favorite filmmakers. I was super nervous at the time, but they were both super cool. We shot this with a little mini-dv, no lights, and no mics, so  lighting and sound aren't so good. But honestly, I'm happy we were able to get any of this on video.

My buddy Mike came with me to the screening to run camera. It was at the Arclight in Hollywood, and was sold out. We didn't have tickets, but we went anyway. it rained that night, which in LA scares people, so a lot of folks didn't show up and we were able to get in.

This was back when we only had 800 or so producers, which seemed like a lot at the time. Spike became producer #819 and Charlie was #820. Spike was just starting pre-production on Where the Wild Things Are, which comes out next week!

I was waiting to post this video until after our new site launch, but the web delays have continued, and I wanted to post this before Where the Wild Things Are hits the screens... I'm SO stoked to see that film! Here is an awesome little WTWTA featurette with Spike and Maurice Sendak: 

best to all,
