Over the last couple of years I have started writing film scripts. So far two short films have been produced and I have serious interest in my feature scripts THE LAST BEACON, THE MAN and DEAD AND ALIVE.
Here are my projects in brief:
THE LAST BEACON

Fantasy Action Adventure (Feature)
IN SHORT:
When a dark enemy plots to destroy a vital chain of Beacons, it not only threatens the safety of two great cities, but also changes the lives of a small group of disgraced Beacon Guards. They set out to stop the enemy, and a race to light The Last Beacon begins.
