- It's funny, I went into film to avoid having a job where I sit at a desk all day, and that's exactly what an editor does. Only now it's in a dark, windowless room and often goes much longer than 40 hours a week!
- I barely had any time to think in 2012. I auditioned for Where the Bears Are (2012) in February, we filmed until the beginning of April, and by the end of April, I had been hired as an editor for the indie film. I worked 7 days a week from May until September, and right as post-production was winding down on the film, the web series was being released online. And it was taking off! Suddenly I was going to promotional events and being asked to be a 'guest' at bear events around the country...and the sudden surge of attention was entirely unexpected. It was hard to deal with, honestly. I had just spent 5 months editing a film, removed from the gay scene almost completely, and when I emerged, everyone suddenly was recognizing me and calling me 'Todd' (the name of my character in Where The Bears Are).
- I'm 5'7", which is the same height as Tom Cruise, Jon Stewart, Sandra Bullock, Bob Marley, Al Pacino, and many other notable public figures. At least that's what Siri tells me. But no, I'm not defensive about my height.
- When I was 8 years old, I started doing community theater on a regular basis, and that continued through high school when I was in plays and musicals. As I was making my way through film school, I took theater classes as a way to fill out my semesters since most of the work was done in class, all I had to do was show up. In the long run, I'm glad I took those classes, because they made me a better filmmaker. Now I can speak to actors in their own "language", and am a better actor myself. I think.
- I like guys of all different shapes and sizes. Sexy is sexy. It's more about how a man carries himself than any certain body type. I've been attracted to big bear types before, but I've also been attracted to tall lean types before too. Do I have a type? Sure, if you had to push me for a certain look that I generally find attractive, then yes, I have a type, I guess. But I'm not limited to it, not by a long shot.
