Logline: An anxiety-powered superhero gets a call from an old Tinder date saying he might be her baby’s daddy.
I made Anxiety-Proof: The Mothership to kill time during lockdown. And because of lockdown, I was forced to write, shoot, star in, and edit the film myself. I shot it with a Moment anamorphic lens attached to an iPhone, along with flashlights, toys and a lot of duct tape and YouTube tutorials.
Read my interview with The New Current UK.
“The film feels like the Lonely Island guys wrote an episode of Girls, or a director’s cut of Knight Rider with more female anatomy and less chest hair. ”
