Mike Hill was nominated for Best Director for a Short Film, and I won Best Lead Actor in a Short Film at the International Christian Film Festival for playing Garreth in "A Matter of Perspective."

Be sure to watch the extras, which bring out how the Lord was so involved in this project!
It was filmed in beautiful Southern Oregon, where I was born and raised. I got to stay on our family farm while we were filming!
This was such an answer to prayer, since that was the area where I was inspired to act by seeing plays produced by the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, taking part in workshops with their actors, and performing at our high school and with our church's youth group.
This was also the fifth film in which Joyce and I got to play husband and wife. Though you won't see her on screen, it's her voice at the end, talking to our characters' progeny, bringing us up to 20 screen children!

I'm really looking forward to seeing what the Lord does through this short film!

Here's an article that mentions the Best Actor award: International Christian Film Festival Exceeds Expectations.
Here's a review from IMDb: Rich Swingle shares moments of strength and vulnerability throughout the transformation. Really enjoyed the story about perspective and how easy things can shift when you choose to change. Tim Kaiser work was really lovely. The landscape visuals were glorious. Thank you for this story and creating it to lift up faith and hope.
