Under Vern's guidance, a cast and crew of many diverse talents was brought together to collaborate on this most ambitious project. Armed with a bit of Chutzpah, he was not only able to obtain the expertise of many industry professional, but he secured all of the locations and property on a gratis basis as well.
Next, armed with only a glib tongue, he acquired the necessary investors to finance the project and organize a promotional campaign that toured the science fiction convention circuit with a preview reel and behind-the-scenes slide presentation. His other responsibilities included assistant director, camera operator, assistant editor and storyboard co-conceptualization.

Vern's earned his BA in Film & Electronic Arts at California State University, Long Beach, but his interest in films began in 1962 with his first 8 mm film Dr. Frankenstien. Since then has produced dozens of short subject and promotional films, including, Clock, which received the Rosebud Award for Best Narrative at the 7th Annual Media Arts Festival Film & Video Competition, a CSU state-wide competition. Clock featured Dan Sanchez, who portrays Rex Ruthor in Superbman.
