Davis has worked with writer/director Matt Piedmont, contributing to comedy segments created by Piedmont for Bud TV, Funny or Die and Comedy Central. Davis's directorial debut Sex Galaxy was created entirely out of recycled stock and public domain footage, primarily from the 1968 film Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women, which in turned borrowed heavily from Planeta Bur. It screened on the international film festival circuit, winning two "Best Feature" awards and one for "Best Drinking Movie," and was released by Breaking Glass Pictures and Unearthed Films in 2008. Due to its "recycling" of copyright-free stock footage, Davis has dubbed it the world's first 'green movie'. Davis follow... ()
