In 1992 Otto option his first feature-length script entitled Havoc to Producer Joel Silver. A few years later, in 1998, Otto wrote a dark comedy called Pop Life, which got the attention of agents over at Innovative Artists and the film was being packaged with hot, young talent. But, in 1999 Otto hit a stumbling block when production of "Pop Life", closely resembling the Columbine Shootings, was halted. Actress Rachael Leigh Cook who was set to star as a troubled cheerleader, withdrew from the project and, because of the sensitive nature of the subject material, the film was never made. Otto persevered and In 2001 completed his first animation project The Blender and won an award from The 8th World Animation Celebration (WACFEST - Animation Magazine). In 2006 he began production on his feature-length mockumentary, Bring Me The Head of Walt Disney, which he finished a year later in 2007. In the fall of 2007 Otto shot 7 short films in a 7 week period, one film every Sunday afternoon, and calls the project Slimdunce.
