third, and most experimental feature, Gomez told the Village Voice "The mood and tempo of Illtown express what I felt like at the time. I had to make it come out the other end. It was incredibly hard, but it was really satisfying working on a more intimate scale again." In 1995, after a screening of Laws of Gravity, Gomez was approached by Tom Fontana and Barry Levinson to create with them a look and tone for their new series for NBC; Homicide: Life on the Street. Gomez would, in turn, direct the pilot for the series and subsequent episodes. In 1997, Gomez would again collaborate with Fontana in the creation of his new series, Oz for HBO. Following Oz, Gomez, now deeply ensconced in the world of television – a place he felt comfortable to express his ideas and flourish, found himself on the crest of the golden age of television with the explosion of cable. He has directed some of the best episodic television of the past two decades and enjoyed close collaborative relationships with the creators of Chicago P.D. along with countless others. Gomez, a prolific episodic director, recently inspired by the wealth of up-and-coming artists, will produce television and bring projects through his company, Eidophusikan Productions.
