lee, the director

(or, "i'd rather direct", as they all say here in hollywood)

"i am the artist

i'm also the art...

everything i do or see or have

end up as pieces of art:

a portrait in film

or video"

lee lee directing directing some famous actors

I love to direct. My mother says it's because I like bossing other people around. I honestly think it's because I just love to teach. I've been some sort of teacher all my life. First, teaching various things to all my younger siblings, then, at the age of fourteen teaching basic guitar (for pay) to children, then teaching my son, and later I had my own art school, teaching children's art classes. Now, as well as editing projects for film students through "starstrom productions", I also teach the basics of editing.

I believe I was born to be a writer/director. No matter what else I try, something nudges me right back to it! And, believe me, I've had more day jobs than a con artist has aliases! The above "still" is from my pilot episode of "Wednesday of my Real Life". The life size mannequins I created for the aforementioned sitcom pilot "Fade Out Inn". Although the pilot bombed, the mannequins have gone on to star in several of my later productions. They've often been featured in other peoples' projects as well, even a music video, "Guilty" for the heavy metal band "All". I created the set for "Guilty" in my Production Designer days. So, if Kimberly and Francesca look familiar to you, that's why. They've been on MTV!

So, now you know a little about me as a director. I'm still dreaming of directing my first feature length film. With the connections I'm making as an editor, that may not be so far in the future!
