Selected Video
Very few of my shows are available online, but here are a few I’ve worked on in a variety of roles.
The Sex Files
I produced seasons 2 and 3 of this award-winning, internationally selling, ratings busting series. Season 1 was the highest rated series in the history of the channel and our team increased the numbers by 30% in season 2. The season premiere of season 2 was the highest rated Canadian show in the history of the channel and the fifth highest rated program of any kind. I directed and wrote this episode, which still has a lot of useful advice.
Canada 1812: Forged in Fire
This six part series was made in co-operation with Parks Canada and Heritage Canada for the 200th anniversary of the War of 1812. We featured 6 prominent figures from the Canadian side. It was shot in 3D, which limited our shot selection, and had a companion graphic novel, which contributed to the artistic recreations in the show. I conceived of and developed this show, as well as executive produced it and did some of the writing.
Cosmic Vistas
I co-created and executive produced this look at our universe. It drove the ratings at Oasis, Love Nature and the Smithsonian Channel in Canada. It also sold well internationally.
A Park for All Seasons
I executive produced this series on the Canadian parks system, one of the true natural jewels in the world. I only got to go on one shoot, but it was a beauty, a 3D shoot to Gwaii Haanas National Park in British Columbia. We loaded and unloaded a ton and a half of gear off a boat every day and hauled it through a huge tidal swing. I’m very proud of this beautiful series. Unfortunately, this is just a teaser and not the full show.
Collector Showdown
This was the first show we created at High Fidelity HDTV. I was the executive producer and came up with the concept. We made 26 episodes in 9 months on a limited budget. The first episode was a lot of fun and a landmark day in the lives of both contestants.
