Building Day Six Films
Day Six Films was created with only one very specific purpose, to produce RED FLAGS.
Like many independent filmmakers, I have chosen to organize each film project as its own limited liability company. This structure allows each project to operate as a separate business, simplifying accounting, fundraising, contracts, insurance, and risk management.
When RED FLAGS completes its production, festival run, and distribution cycle, Day Six Films LLC will be dissolved and its remaining assets will be transferred to a parent creative organization that I intend to build over time.
This approach allows each film to stand on its own while contributing to a larger artistic mission.
Founding Principles
Spread Light
Many stories focus on the battle between good and evil, as though darkness exists somewhere outside of ourselves. I believe something more complicated, and more human, is true. Each of us carries both light and darkness within us. Fear, selfishness, resentment, pride, and dishonesty can quietly shape our choices when left unexamined. We cannot transform what we refuse to see.
Spread Roots
Stories do not emerge from a vacuum. They grow from generations of artists, filmmakers, musicians, writers, and thinkers who came before us. As both a filmmaker and teacher, I have become increasingly aware of how easily we can lose touch with the cultural works that shaped our collective imagination. "Spread Roots" is my commitment to drawing from that rich artistic inheritance, weaving influences from film, music, literature, history, and art into my work. By remaining connected to the richness of the past, we gain a stronger foundations for the stories yet to come.
Spread Depth
Storytelling occupies an extraordinary amount of our waking lives. The stories we consume shape how we understand ourselves, others, and the world around us. Yet, we increasingly live in a culture that favors simplicity over complexity, where people are often categorized as good or bad, beliefs are treated as entirely right or wrong, and entire lives are judged by isolated moments. I believe meaningful stories should resist that impulse. Through horror, mystery, fantasy, and other forms of genre storytelling, I strive to explore the contradictions, struggles, and complexities that make us human. "Spread Depth" is a commitment to creating stories that move beyond easy answers, encouraging audiences to think critically, embrace nuance, and see both themselves and others with greater understanding.
Spread Growth
At their core, my stories are about transformation. I am drawn to characters at their lowest moments to build understanding about how they arrived there. Too often, people are defined by their worst decisions rather than the experiences, wounds, fears, and circumstances that shaped them. By exploring the full journey of a character’s struggle, I hope to create stories that foster compassion, self-reflection, and a belief in the possibility of change. My greatest hope is that audiences leave my films recognizing that their lives are never finished stories, that they always have the power to make new choices, and that one day they may look back and admire the transformation those choices created.
Future Projects
Current projects in development include a short film about a guy in Colombia who defeats a nightmare encounter with ancient magic; a short about a mother whose search for her missing son leads her into a world of delusion and uncertainty after a mysterious encounter at an art gallery; a feature about a recovering addict who gradually transforms a support group into a dangerous cult; a 1950s supernatural horror film about a family whose grief following a mother’s death leaves them vulnerable to a growing evil; a dramatic television series following a paranoid filmmaker whose addiction and ambitions blur the line between reality and imagination; and an adaptation of a horror classic, reset during the American colonization for trade partnerships in Ecuador's rainforest.
Together, these projects reflect my belief that genre storytelling can do more than entertain. It can challenge us, inspire us, and help us better understand ourselves and one another.
