Over the last three years Oates has been working in interactive entertainment, but has recently transitioned back into music videos, documentaries, and other short form content.

Director’s statement about “David Koresh Fan Club”

“Independent musician Nate Cole and I, both bored and reeling from projects canceled by Covid, decided to get together and make a music video using only the resources at our disposal. The result is an extremely personal work about our shared childhood experiences within the evangelical Christian community.

“We hope you enjoy “David Koresh Fan Club,” and please know that the two of us shot the project in isolation, practicing safe distancing guidelines the entire time.”
