A graduate of the University of Michigan\u2019s Opera Performance program, he later served as Senior Vice President and Creative Director at Jack Morton Worldwide, where his work earned recognition including a Telly Award and a Gold Medal from the New York Film and TV Festival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He is the co-author of My Art, My World, a book celebrating the art and life of Rita Winkler, and has helped bring Rita\u2019s work to audiences through exhibitions, publishing, video, and public engagement. A More Colorful World: The Art Behind Rita Winkler reflects his commitment to intimate, visually driven storytelling rooted in creativity, dignity, and human connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Director Statement<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I made A More Colorful World: The Artistry Behind Rita Winkler because I wanted audiences to see Rita not as a symbol, but as an artist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rita\u2019s process is unlike the polished, over-explained version of creativity we often expect. Her work begins with color, repetition, instinct, and trust. She does not intellectualize her paintings or describe them in the language of theory. She simply creates. Watching that process closely reveals something deeply human: the need to make, to express, and to leave a mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><a href=\"https:\/\/filmfreeway.com\/submissions\/37628916\" title=\"PLAY NOW\" rel=\"noopener nofollow sponsored ugc\" target=\"_blank\">PLAY MOVIE (please click here)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\nAn intimate short documentary about artist Rita Winkler, whose watercolor world reveals a creative process shaped by instinct, rhythm, repetition, and color.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6184,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"movie_genre":[215,222],"movie_tag":[],"class_list":["post-6176","movie","type-movie","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","movie_genre-short-film","movie_genre-usa-films"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/movie\/6176","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/movie"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/movie"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6176"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6184"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6176"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"movie_genre","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/movie_genre?post=6176"},{"taxonomy":"movie_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/colortapeinternational.eu\/2026\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/movie_tag?post=6176"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
