Part 2 has been released!! It is in the link in my bio
I’m thrilled for you all to experience the sequel to the original film and see where these characters are now. This has been my biggest and most ambitious project outside of my documentary work. For this film, we created an entirely original soundtrack, and collaborating with the musicians and producers was an incredible experience.
This project is deeply personal to me—l see parts of myself in each of these characters, and l’ve met people like every one of them in real life. I cannot thank my cast and crew enough for bringing this vision to life on screen. You’ve truly made my dream a reality.
I can’t wait to create with you all again in the future!

I just got these great BTS shots from the College Crossroads 2 film shoot with @diner_films. Josh was a great director and DP, Walt (@awabeats) was our sound guy extraordinaire, and it was an honor to play Dad to Ari (@ariokai) who absolutely rocked it in the lead role. This is part 2 and you can watch part 1 of the film at https://youtu.be/D_62mkaB760?si=xMSM9TPEZ0Sa8FAH

SPLASH WORLD is FINALLY OUT!!!
I’ve been waiting for the perfect time to release this—and what better season than SUMMER?!
This short film started when I myself was a lifeguard. I was on the lifeguard stand bored out of my mind watching the water and I started thinking of all the potential things that can go wrong (😑 I really @finaldestinationmovie myself) I started thinking of characters and dialogue. Everyday on the stand I would think of the look the different plot points the idea as a whole. Then I was like that’s way too expensive to make, how can I make it cheap. Not long after SPLASH WORLD was born.

To the cast: Thank you for diving in headfirst and bringing these chaotic, creepy, and hilarious characters to life.
To the crew: You are the backbone of this film. From long shoot days to unexpected challenges, you brought your best energy, creativity, and support every single time.

💖 Special thanks to @brooke_beeeee, @the_nicsters, @ao_johnson , @brad_asia , @rico.levitt , @77.lexx , @ariokai and @mat_nayr @moonubun @caitlyn_cota3 @solidbratha @joshuaw.mp3 — your overwhelming help and support made this project not only possible but fun. I’m endlessly grateful to each of you for going above and beyond.

To everyone who watches and shares this — THANK YOU. It means the world. This is just the beginning.
