Biography with no assertion of notability; all sources appear to be self-published or primary. Reads like a puff piece, which triggered warning bells in my head. Does not appear to meet criteria at WP:FILMMAKER. Axem Titanium (talk) 01:37, 17 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Agreed, but the awards and nominations suggest notability. Lazz _R 17:51, 18 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not certain the SATO 48 is a notable award. The article itself has no references and it seems to be some kind of local amateur film festival? I'm not certain how to evaluate the Shorty Awards, other than that they exist. Do people know or care about them? Does winning one confer notability? Regardless, the awards section of McConnell's article is clearly notability-hacking. Axem Titanium (talk) 20:08, 19 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
