BIO

will_prescott_film_director.jpg

I tell stories about people trying really hard (usually at the wrong things). They're chasing greatness, meaning, or validation, convinced everything will fall into place if they just pull this one thing off. It rarely goes to plan. That spiral of comedic desperation, that’s my sweet spot.


My first feature, FEEDING MR. BALDWIN, follows a man treating a house-sitting gig like an audition for a better life. He’s all in: walking the dog, watering the plants, holding onto hope as things unravel around him. I find that kind of delusional commitment funny, sad, and oddly inspiring.


I grew up in Alaska, raised by a dad who reinvented himself constantly. That shaped how I see ambition. Not as vanity, but survival.


Now I make dark comedies and crime thrillers. Genre stories about messy people in morally gray spaces, clawing toward something better, or at least more interesting. I think that tension, between absurdity and sincerity, is where my style lives.
