Skye started making short films in 2022. The science research goes back further—deep dives into the kind of questions that keep you up at night. Sound engineering goes back further still, to when we used tape recorders and timing was everything. Still uses paper.
He grew up on Herbert, Asimov, Clarke, and Baxter. Dune. A Time Odyssey. Space Odyssey. The worlds that played out in those pages weren't just stories — they were systems. Living, breathing systems where the science was as immersive as the characters.
That carried into film. Close Encounters. Avatar. The Expanse. What Cameron and Lucas built on screen proved that science fiction could feel real — tangible — like Pandora, the habitable moon, an alien ecosystem based on real-world science and yet relatable, immersive.
That's how he approaches filmmaking. Hard science fiction with heart. Immersive worlds where the technology feels inevitable, not invented. Ad Astra — without the depressing solitude of the universe.
He is a survivor. Of motor-neuron disease. Of unimaginable trauma. Of quantum weirdness.
And yet...he loves to bake sourdough from ancient grains. Misses Hawaii. Conducts science experiments. Makes hard science easy. Approaches biology with systems engineer's perspective.
Spaceships are just toys, but bigger. With stellarator fusion and micro-nuclear thorium salt reactor back ups. I don't do warp cores. Sorry Trekkies.
His greatest inspiration is Jose Reyes. Jose makes costumes and wardrobe. He's an engineer. He builds props and ship models. He acts. He shows up and builds whatever the story needs. That's the standard.

When they write a screenplay, they act out the scenes. They feel the lines. They need to understand why a character says this and not that — and why it matters.
