Humphreys tracks down the legendary tree planter Franz Otto while he tells the history of the tree-planting industry and its unique culture. Franz Otto Ultimate Highballer was reviewed favorably in hearty magazine[4] and The Georgia Straight.[5] His second film Shitty Youth (2012)[6] follows young novelist Zachary German over a two-year period following the release of his first novel Eat When You Feel Sad. The film takes its name from German's short-lived online radio show. It includes interviews with writers Tao Lin, Steve Roggenbuck, and Brandon Scott Gorrell. Shitty Youth was featured on Vice,[7] HTML Giant,[8] and DIS magazine.[9] In a review on literary blog HTML Giant, Stephen Tully Dierks called the film "an interesting document of an idiosyncratic figure."[8]Lucky Dragon Mobile Visa ConsultantIn November 2011, Humphreys founded Lucky Dragon Mobile Visa Consultant, a printing and visa consulting company operated out of a van in front of the Chinese Consulate in New York City. His enterprise was discussed on the CBC News Network program Connect with Mark Kelley,[10] NPR's Planet Money,[11] An executive order passed by the White House in January 2012 sped up the visa application process,[12] forcing Humphreys to discontinue his business.[13] Commercial Video WorkHumphreys has produced and directed for various corporate accounts including Rag & Bone and Estée Lauder.
