			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Carl has the perfect life. Or so he thinks. He leads a quiet, predictable existence in a safe, middle class housing estate in the suburbs. He&#8217;s married to Vicky, his devoted wife and constant partner. She loves Carl but his unwillingness to change is starting to take its toll. Cracks are starting to show in their marriage. Vicky becomes more and more frustrated with Carl&#8217;s increasingly boring ways.</p>
<p>Their different outlooks on life start to reach boiling point. Today is Vicky’s birthday. And she wants to celebrate and have some fun and romance. And Carl’s world is about to be turned upside down by his own unwillingness to take risks. It&#8217;s at this point when we realize what is and what could have been with Carl&#8217;s life &#8212; with any life. And we learn the truth about missed opportunities and missed happiness.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Roderick Fenske director of &#8220;Careful Carl&#8221; started directing music videos in London in 2001. Soon after, he broke into directing commercials while working as a creative for top London ad agencies St. Luke’s and TBWA. Within a year, he amassed a show reel of comedy work that included award-winning commercials for clients such as Sony Playstation 2, Channel Five and FCUK.</p>
<p>In 2004, Roderick was invited to join the Swedish film collective ACNE, based in Stockholm. For the next three years, he directed comedy and visual-effects-based commercials for global brands including Coca-Cola, Alfa-Romeo, Tropicana, Skittles and Sprint Nextel.</p>
<p>In 2007 Roderick joined the U.S. commercials production company Hungry Man and continued his directing career out of London, shooting more commercials for world famous brands such as Microsoft, VW and Gillette. His work has appeared in such prestigious awards shows Eurobest (Gold), Cannes, and British Design and Art Direction.</p>
<p>Recently, Roderick moved to Los Angeles to continue growing his career and pursue long format projects for Television and Cinema. His short film ‘Careful Carl’ was an official selection at the 2009 Palm Springs International Film Festival as well as the Philadelphia International Film Festival and several other notable festivals.</p>
<p>Roderick has just finished post-production on his latest short film ‘Future Dave’. It’s a comedy about a young man who is forced to confront his future – and his alternate future – all while trying to have sex with his girlfriend. It can be seen at a festival near you.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, Roderick is currently in talks with production companies about various features projects, including one that he has written himself. Stay tuned on this front as more will follow soon!</p>
