Seeing some of his favorite characters come to life sparked a long life passion, so upon graduating from the University of Florida in 2003 with Honors and holding a Bachelor's degree in Visual Arts, Moe set out to pursue his dream in film-making.
With an eye for photography, Moe started with small projects and short films until he directed and produced "Never Winter" in 2008; a 30 minute Fantasy Drama that screened at over 40 film festivals worldwide, garnering much critical acclaim while getting nominations; as well as picking up, many awards for the young Director. Moe then founded Dcode Films and quickly began taking on commercial projects. In time his career as a Director would take him to over 30 countries and 50 cities around the world exposing him to many different cultures and environments. To date Moe has directed projects for many global brands, most notably: Turner Broadcasting, TNT, Ritz Carlton, Epson, Royal Caribbean, Machinima, HTV and Bridger Conway.
Moe insists on delivering the same high level of quality throughout his projects, irrelevant of the budget or scope of work. This is made possible through his attention to detail, strong story sense, visual style, and talent for utilizing visual effects. It is also worth mentioning that In 2003; and in parallel to making short films, Moe got involved in real estate where he climbed the ladder quickly into eventually managing over $1.2 billion in real estate inventory in the Miami area. However in 2006, Moe learned that his film-making passion could no longer be silenced by his success in the corporate field, so he decided to quit his V.P. position and focus solely on telling stories.
Moe believes that a film is a harmonious and delicate equilibrium that entails bringing all factors together into a perfect fit, which is why he focuses a great deal on all aspects of film-making. Moe is also involved in writing many of the scripts and ideas he directs, as he firmly believes that "at the core of every great film, is a great story".
