ABOUT
my work
Hi! My name is Donny, I'm a Japanese-Bahamian filmmaker, currently attending New York City's SCHOOL OF VISUAL ARTS. I've been filmmaking since 2004, when a small collective of the local youth and I started producing short films and videos for YouTube and several internet film festivals. Our YouTube account has nearly 400 subscribers, and hundreds of thousands of views. I've worked on
several independent films since then, doing everything from editing to producing to filming to stunt doubling. Our most recent film, CODE OF HONOR, is scheduled to screen at the SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL in Park City, Utah, in 2010. Now, if you'd like to contact me, you've got some options!

Code of Honor, directed by Mike Allen, was shot over the summer of 2009 in Southern Florida. It was filmed on ta PANASONIC HVX200 and a PANASONIC HVX200A. Code of Honor is a medieval redemption tale with a scifi twist. Starring the Sci Fi Channel's Phil Allen (Who Wants to be a Super Hero?) as the corrupt ruler Damon Kaine, and iTunes' Shawn Snyder as Trevor Oakson, an idealistic young knight who must change Damon's ways and save an opressed world. Trailer is better than the description, I promise.
