Max's films have been selected for screening at film festivals, nationally, including the short documentary "Stories of Strength and Hope: Preventing Youth Suicide," which won Best Documentary at the 2019 Long Island International Film Expo (LIIFE) and "Abigail," which won the Audience Award at the 2020 edition of the festival. He is currently in the early stages of writing his first original narrative feature film, tentatively titled "The Lens Within Me."
In addition to filmmaking, Max has been working as a professional video editor for over the past ten years. He hopes to continue his work in production and post-production and pursue film projects, including short and feature-length narratives and documentaries that get people to think, question and open conversations about subjects that are difficult, but can lead to change and positive outcomes. Max is also an avid enthusiast of musical theater and a personal goal of his is to adapt Broadway shows for film.
