BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:

I've always wanted to go to Mars, but it's so far. So, armed with a drone and a space helmet from eBay, I took to the rocky deserts of Southern Utah. Sparse vistas that go on in every direction. Terrain formed over hundreds of millions of years. At golden hour, these landscapes take on an otherworldly vibe. The result — THE VISITOR. A short, experimental film about a lone astronaut (played by me) on a strange planet. An experiment in creating something in the science fiction aesthetic, and a possible a proof-of-concept of a larger story.
