Overview
I started writing Rock A Bye the movie over a year ago and it has consumed me ever since. I wake up thinking about this movie, and I go to bed thinking about it. I talk to all my friends about it. I even have dreams about it. Now I need your help in making this dream a reality. We have some amazing perks like cars used in the movie, meet the stars, hangout on set.

"Rock A Bye" the movie is a passion project I have been working on for over a year. It's about a veteran that returns home after serving his country in Iraq after 911. While he was away his then girlfriend finds out that she is pregnant with their child. She gives him up adoption knowing she can't provide a good life for the child. After returning home the father gets custody of his son, they leave Savannah and head to Columbus Georgia to live.

After 13 years of raising his son on his own, he finds out that he has terminal cancer. He must make a life changing decision, either give up his son for adoption or find his biological mother and let her finish raising him.

Rock A Bye is a timeless powerful drama." Where one story ends, another begins"

 

ABOUT ME

I grew up just north of Ft. Benning and graduated high school in Columbus Georgia in 1979 and joined the military to see the world, well I got stationed all the way across the state  in Savannah. That's where after my service ended I started working as an auto painter. Luck would have it one day,  I met a delivery girl that would bring paint supplies to our shop. That chance meeting changed my life forever. She was a student of The Savannah College of Art & Design. She was getting her degree in video production and as we grew to be friends she would take me on shoots and let me help out occasionally, After the first day behind the camera I fell in love, that's when I knew what  I  wanted to do the rest of my life. So I have been behind the camera for over 25 years  enjoying this amazing journey.

 

 

THE MOVIE

I started writing this movie over a year ago, and at that time my biggest supporter was my mom, like most people. Little did I know there would be so many parallels between the movie I was writing and the real life that was unfolding before me.  My mother had a history of battling cancer and always overcame the odds. In my movie, my main character's call to action is that he finds out he has pancreatic cancer and has to find his 14-year-old son's biological mom to help finish raising him. Little did I know months later that my mother would have the same diagnosis. Before her passing, we talked about my movie every day and she would always ask how it was coming. Sometimes she wouldn't see me for a day or two and she knew I was at the computer pecking away at the script. Some of our last conversations were about making sure I told this story. I promised her I would and that's where I need your help in bringing Rock A Bye  to Life.

 Growing up in the south and in a military/mill town as we would called it back then. I have roots here and love this part of the country so my writing reflects my southern lifestyle. I wrote the screenplay in a  simple way, no explosions or crazy car chases, no special effects but there are a few one-on-one fights for good measure. Rock A Bye is a powerful, timeless  drama that captures the spirit of the human soul.
