Dammann was also active behind the camera, working on various reality TV formats such as the US original version of The Bachelor in post-production . In the evangelical radio series Adventures in Odyssey , he took on the role of Eric Myers , a small insignificant role. Prior to that, he starred alongside Aimee Graham , younger sister of Heather Graham , and Alastair Surprise in Fellowship of the Dice , a film directed by Matthew Ross , in 2005 .
