The Origin Story

"In early 1988 I was in a foxhole in Germany's Fulda Gap having volunteered for 'Forward Observer Training'. By the middle of the first night, I'm thinking that I'm on the tip of the sword if the Eastern Bloc decides to mobilize in conventional fashion. I'm also thinking that if World War 3 did happen and our 'world leaders' took shelter in their subterranean bunkers, who is going to be left on the nuclear seared surface to dig them back out? But what if they did not come back up? What if they...went the other direction and dug miles down to rebuild humanity underground? What happens to them after so many centuries of evolving - or devolving - in such harsh conditions? How far would these people go to reclaim the surface? Might they even create a weapon to do it for them? What happens if that weapon decides to violate their programming and prosecute its own mission? This became the genesis of THE OUTWORLDER. So here I am on German soil imagining Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN overthrowing Thea Von Harbou's METROPOLIS in the 28th century while watching Soviet troops movements across the No Man's Land. Good times. I've been writing screenplays, novels, short stories, stage plays and TV Pilots since age 16 and this was the first epic idea I ever originated. I'd had plenty of rejection trying to get an agent and I knew Hollywood would not like the pitch for THE OUTWORLDER. Too German. This begat the need for an instrument to create an OUTWORLDER film independently of anyone's system and that instrument became GOTHAM FILMWERKS."

DOCUMENTARIES

In the Fall of 1992, I was in my final semester of Graduate School at the Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts. The semester-long assignment for Ethics of Docudrama was to do a research paper regarding the JFK assassination. Read here is my paper along with visual schematics of the location and a ballistics report on the weapons used and by whom and their motivations. At the end is a complete bibliography of reputable sources.

When COvid19 hit and N95 Masks were in short supply, many of we Citizens tailored our own from fabrics and elastic strap just to move around our work area, shopping venues or homes. This is my Tutorial .

In the Fall of 2022, Rachel Aerwyn Delaney was diagnosed with the beginnings of Kidney Failure. I compiled every photo, every piece of video and then filmed more to create an hour long movie celebrating the life of this tiny Pomeranian. She had her paw in every Outworlder production, made appearances in other films and also had a noticeable social media paw print.
