Doscher has also produced and directed several short films including, “Leave You In Me” [warning: this video contains some nudity and scenes of a sexual nature] which has won best fiction film and numerous acting awards in over 25 film festivals and has earned these testimonials:
- "I didn’t want to turn it off." - Jonathan Demme, Silence Of The Lambs.
- "The film is superb, well shot and acted." - Mark Romanek, Director One Hour Photo.
- "Dark and beautiful, gorgeously shot, mesmerizing, sexy, beautifully acted." - David Frankel, Director, Marley and Me.
- "Shot in gorgeous black and white, it was really good like a Fellini movie." - Bobby Rivers, Whoopie Goldberg Show
- “Gorgeous, raw emotion. A supremely human experience. A love letter.” - Robert Luketic, Director Legally Blond
The spring 2009 issue of Filmmaking Magazine published an article on Dutch’s current feature film, “The Wonder Project,” currently in post-production.
Doscher has been a semi-finalist for the shows “On The Lot” and “Project Greenlight.” and in 2005, Doscher started his own production company "InnerVisions Media." With an extensive background in casting and all aspects of productions, Doscher's accomplishments can best be attributed to his ability to test the limits, by tapping into his innate visual creativity and energy.

Great movie, but it was shot on an iPhone4 (not 3GS), see the end of the movie.
@Eduard. Thanks for pointing out the typo error.
The clips may nave been shot on a Iphone 4 and trimed with imove app but the rest was
most likely done in final cut pro..Its too slick for all done on a iphone. Try just using Reel director or imove or other editing apps, then that could be called made on a Iphone.
@Kenneth, the video was shot and edited on the iPhone, with just the titles done with iMovie on the Mac, so this is a made with iPhone movie.
Really well done, it goes to show the importance of creativity and composition rather than simply having the most expensive equipment available.
Wow, very impressive work!
