Here are some films I’ve worked on—most directly, one indirectly. For the ones you can buy, I have included links to that stuff (disclosure: any links to Amazon are affiliate links, and I get a kickback if you buy using those links).
There are some older shorts not listed here, but you can find more about those on my IMDB page.
