I made Man in the Middle as my junior thesis in film school at Loyola Marymount University. We were tasked with creating a short film without on-screen dialogue, and couldn't record production sound. The story follows Reid, a spy-for-hire who stalks the night to provide a full suite of intelligence for his clients. In 2025 I gave the film a little remaster to modernize it and better publish it as one of my first short films.
