Biography

Greg Swinson’s passion for filmmaking started at age 11 with his first short, Scorpion: Day of Darkness, which featured his 8-year old brother as a Rambo-inspired action hero. A few years later, he decided to make a movie based on his favorite video game: Mortal Kombat. Ryan Thiessen heard about the project and wanted in, introducing him to the world of VHS filmmaking. The two quickly realized their shared passion for movie making went well beyond creating realistic fight scenes, but to crafting interesting stories that challenged the expected storyline we so often see.
