About Karney

I'm a writer/director, I've been doing documentaries for the last eight years ("Overdrawn!", "Plant This Movie") and making videos for many clients from the City of Santa Monica to a Swiss Federal Institute, and now I'm in the process of getting back into narrative film. Moving back to LA in a few months.

Levine, his best friend and Natalie, the woman who might have saved him, suffer the pain of Tulley's anger and rejection. Written by Anonymous
A Moment of Silence (2000)
Film (Comedy and Short) Location management "Bill" is a gung-ho advertising executive with too much power and too few people skills. We find him working on a campaign for a soothing vacation package, but his life is quite the opposite: a constant barrage of mobile phone calls, pages and faxes. One evening, as Bill wraps up the deal (while simultaneously listening to a CD, his answering machine messages, and watching picture-within-picture TV) he receives a phone call that changes his life.
