He has great memories of watching the classics on late-night TV and taking the bus downtown to one of the many theatres that existed then to see the latest big-screen movies.

He was also a big fan of music videos, which were new and often cutting-edge visually, and they made him want to be involved in the industry.He came across newspaper articles about Winnipeg filmmakers and films coming to Winnipeg to be made. Film Training Manitoba and the Winnipeg Film Group were pivotal to him gaining basic skills and meeting the right people to make the beginnings of his career possible.What has been a substantial change in the industry since you started?The transition from film to video, as well as the overall technology advances in camera systems and lighting equipment.
