When a college student is blackmailed into expanding his dating horizons, a studious but shy guy meets the woman of his dreams.

Joseph is studying alone in his dorm room. He is working on a Anthropology Powerpoint for his midterm presentation.

Melissa is stood up at a bar on a blind date. She has plenty of empty martini glasses in front of her. The bar closes.

The next morning, Melissa is late for class, and takes the only seat available: the one next to Joseph, and they don't acknowledge each other.

Later that evening, Joseph is watching TV as his tech savvy brother blackmails him into going on a date.

Melissa and her friends enter a house party where Melissa feels out of place. Her girlfriends immediately get to drinking with their boyfriends, and leave Melissa on her own. Almost immediately a creepy dude starts hitting on her.

Melissa wanders around campus and finds a handwritten ad for a date with Joseph. She takes out her cell phone and dials the number written on the page.

While playing a first person shooter, Joseph gets a phone call from Melissa and is stunned by a response to his ad. They set up a date for the next day after class.

Joseph and Melissa finish their class together, but don't realize who each other is. Melissa rushes out of the classroom, as Joseph casually walks out of the classroom.

Joseph walks across the lawn, looking almost tortured by the couples he sees scattered across the lawn.

Joseph walks into a cafe's sidewalk seating, waiting for his date. Melissa walks up and notices Joseph from her class, she sits down when they realize that they are meeting each other.

I'm a student filmmaker, filming my debut feature (that I've written and am directing) on days when I can. 

It's called Condottiere and it's about the struggles and horrors of making independent films. 

This is a very brief scene, and you will have no lines. 

Essentially, the entire film is a "meta" film about the struggles you go through, and the horror stories of, acting in independent films. The anxiety you get from auditions, or filming, or the inadequacy you feel as an actor, that's something that I tried to externalize into this film. My hope is that anyone who's done this sort of acting will find some small piece of the film relateable. 

In this brief scene, the lead actress, Pam, is sitting on a bench, waiting to get into called into a room for an audition. As she does, another actress (with a much bigger bust than her) sits down on this same bench, and with no dialogue, Pam immediately starts comparing herself to this other actress and feeling anxious, starting to feel inadequate. 

This is a pretty out there, small part and I understand if someone is offended by it, or thinks it's exploitative, but I think that showing visually something that would be intimidating to Pam, from another actress, is extremely important to the audience's understanding of her as a character. Comparing yourself to another actor who's sitting next to you, going to the same audition, is something everybody does, I feel, and this is just a version of that.

Indie Time Travel Feature to be produced in Sacramento during the Summer of 2018.

• Job: Film

This is a stage play at a non-paying community theatre located in Citrus Heights, California.

It is volunteer, non-union. No pay.

This boulevard comedy was a smash hit in Paris, where it played for over two years, and in London, where it ran for six years at the Apollo and Duchess Theatres. It has since played in theatres all over the USA and the English speaking world and was revived in Chicago and on Broadway at the American Airlines Theatre in 2012. This production was nominated for two Tony awards.

Bernard is planning a romantic weekend with his chic Parisian mistress in his charming converted French farmhouse, whilst his wife, Jacqueline, is away. He has arranged for a cordon bleu cook to prepare gourmet delights, and has invited his best friend, Robert, along too to provide the alibi. It's foolproof; what could possibly go wrong? Well.... suppose Robert turns up not realizing quite why he has been invited. Suppose Robert and Jacqueline are secret lovers, and consequently determined that Jacqueline will NOT leave for the weekend. Suppose the cook has to pretend to be the mistress and the mistress is unable to cook. Suppose everyone's alibi gets confused with everyone else's. An evening of hilarious confusion ensues as Bernard and Robert improvise at breakneck speed.
