During college Autrey became good friends with Justin DiSandro and through their mutual love for films formed the production company Found Dead Productions in early 2008. They produced their first short film shortly after graduation in 2008 called Slurpees (horror). The two would go on to collaborate in two more films in 2008, Blow Dart (Comedy) and the well-received slasher movie The Pizza Parlor Massacre (Horror).
