I’m very happy to announce that I’m partnering with AGC to make a movie based on a story that’s very close to my heart. Click on the link below to read more…
When I returned last year from nine months in South America with my family, one thing was clear: I needed a job. Cue “Alternatino,” a Comedy Central project that had already piloted and been greenlit for ten episodes. In some ways, it was a dream situation: I stepped into a show that was already defined, already (by virtue of the amazing pilot) successful. I worked with the star/creator Arturo Castro and the director Nick Jasenovec to hire some of my favorite (available) writers and we were off and running.
One of the episodes I wrote for Teachers, co-written with Ian Roberts.
Most of the writing I did on Key & Peele was rewriting, but there are a handful of sketches that I worked on from inception to air. Here’s one of them.
I’ve worked with Michael Moore on many projects — why single out this small, unassuming piece? I guess because having the inspiration to turn a bunch of interview footage nobody knew what to do with into a nature mockumentary was one of those exciting moments that makes being a writer worthwhile. And I enjoyed channeling my inner “Masterpiece Theater” host for the voice-over. Also, the piece is even more relevant now than it was two decades ago.
I was brought in to work on “Fahrenheit 911” with editor Kurt Engfer while Michael Moore was shooting elsewhere. The movie changed substantially after my tenure, but this is one small piece that survived intact (as did Kurt’s scratch VO).
