Q: If you could pluck someone from the past and bring them to the present day, who would you bring?
- Dara D., Maryland

CF: John Lennon.

Q: Do you think that we are alone in the universe?
- Forest Pettis, Houston, Texas

CF: Great question. I tend to believe there are beings out there, perhaps even living among us that we haven't the ability to detect. We may not have the tools to sense them. They could exist in a form of consciousness or entity that we don't even understand.

Q: Not to sound weird, but are you single?
- Natalie, Ohio

CF: We're all single when you really look at it.

Q: Being a huge fan of your acting skills, I am also very interested in your musical and writing talents as well. Unfortunately, I have come up short on finding any information about your other works. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks!
- Janet, USA

CF: Thanks for asking. My latest script, "Izzy Underwood," is close to getting made. I've been working on it for 4 1/2 years now. I have other projects in the works also. My music has hit the bookshelf, as have the movies I directed. But in "Izzy Underwood" I will be playing a musician and 3 or 4 of my songs will be featured in that. As for finding my old works... I've hid them all. I just feel I've grown so much as an artist since then that I want to come out with new stuff in the near future. So... it's coming. Thanks for your interest.

Q: What would you say was the hardest obstacle to overcome in making your short films? What advice would you give to aspiring filmmakers in high school like me, trying to make quality short films?
- Tim Buttner, Vermont

CF: Well, I think the most important thing is simply to learn storytelling. That's what people go to the movies to witness. I think it's easy for people starting out to get focused on the technical or business facets, but all that is to service the story being told. So, I would suggest: send scripts, write, study the principles of storytelling, take acting classes (definitely) so you know how to get performances from your actors, and play around with digital video cameras. Just learn how to tell a great story. Good luck to you. I wrote a letter like yours to a director I admired when I was 16. His advice inspired me.
