We’re With the Band (short film) featuring Alanis Morissette

This is a short film I directed about rock-and-roll roadies. We shot with Alanis Morissette for about a week while she was on tour. The cast features a talented bunch of actors and improvisers, as well as some of Alanis’s actual crew.

The short made its way into the hands of the folks at Playtone and Comedy Central, who hired us to re-shoot it as a pilot.

Shooting this was insanely fun, and worth every bit of the damage to my eardrums.
