I had the pleasure of working with Brett on his first feature film, "Stag." It proved to be a wonderful, collaborative experience. His direction was decisive and knowledgeable and he had a great rapport with the actors and crew. We moved through our days with efficiency and humour. I would highly recommend him as both a writer and director.

Brett literally changed the momentum in my career. He has supremely keen insight to the nuances of comedy and has a natural ability to bring out the best in his actors. He creates such a safe environment to explore, learn and laugh and I’d recommend him to anyone.

Brett has that rare ability to get the best from everyone by making you feel that your input is not only desired but greatly valued. My time with him always feels more like a collaboration than a straight Director/Actor relationship. Ask any actor how rare that is. I have been associated with dozens of directors and producers in television and film but there are only a handful of people that I would jump at a chance to work with. Brett is at the top of that list.

Brett does a lot of things very, very well… write, direct, lighten the mood of a client meeting at just the right moment with just the right quip. He has such a keen sense of story, character, structure and timing, especially comedic timing. Behind the camera, he is an actor's director, getting the best performance while making the actor love being on set. Crews love working with him because his management style is predicated on respect and allowing the crew's talent to shine through. Producers love him because he works fast and on budget without an ego that needs managing. And commercial clients really love Brett because he listens to them and truly understands their needs. In today's climate where dollars are stretched and great performances can be key in making a piece stand out, Brett delivers.

Few artists have the extensive experience Brett has in creating, conceptualizing and developing art effectively from every angle, and doing it all without compromising his vision, integrity or natural ability to be relatable and hilarious! As far as I'm concerned, he'd be an asset on anyone's project!

Brett is not only a skilled ideas man, writing and directing truly original stories, but he also excels at empowering those around him to step up and do their very best alongside him, in a collaborative environment. He helps talent understand and embrace his vision, while letting them own their performance. He collaborates exceedingly well with producers and financiers, giving them ample latitude to contribute, while never losing sight of the ultimate goal of the project. Above all, he mixes true professionalism with a desire for every participant to enjoy the ride and have fun.
