The depiction of a young man's downward spiral as told from his fluxing point of view. "The Good Worker" is

the second in a trilogy of films depicting the psychological downfall of 3 very different people. I'm making the

trilogy in order to deal with the same theme in different cinematic styles. Exhibit A was the first in the series.

Shot and edited in August 2005, "The Good Worker" is a highly improvisational film. There was a very

basic outline that detailed the arc of the characters. I followed Mark Dew around with the camera and we

made many discoveries about the character and the story as we went. It was a very freeing way to work

because the structure and style allowed us to take chances that we wouldn't have the opportunity to take

on a conventional movie set. It is a minimalist film told visually as possible and with sparse use of dialogue.

With Mark Dew & David Bannon
