- Additional Crew
Brian is a Canadian indie film producer attached to over 57 film projects (36 IMDb listed as of Dec. 2023) of varied genres with creators from Great Britain, Australia, U.S. and Canada. A complete list of his credits are compiled on his website.
In recent years, Brian has focused his interests and funding to specifically support, encourage and empower female-identifying BIPOC filmmakers and creatives to tell emotional, thought-provoking, female-driven stories of inclusion, self-reliance, acceptance and understanding. His most rewarding film projects have propelled further discussion after leaving the theatre, or in the classroom.
Having been interested in television media from a very young age, Brian excelled in Grade 12 Film Arts, being one of only two class students to receive a special Certificate of Proficiency from Peterborough, Ontario's Crestwood Secondary School in 1974. It was at that point that he entered the television broadcasting field, where he obtained a lifetime wealth of knowledge and experience spanning an over 48 year career path of control room and studio environments involving video editing, graphics, directing, copy writing, program promotion, and social media/web publishing. In 2018, five years before he left broadcast production, that Brian began privately funding indie films.
In his time away from indie film endeavors, Brian enjoys landscaping and gardening projects while vibing to his curated Pop/House/EDM/R&B music playlists on his 3/4 acre property located in rural Ontario, Canada. As the weather permits, Brian embarks on sunset bike rides through the neighboring rural countryside, which he photographs and shares on some of his social media feeds to the delight of some of his regular followers.
Brian is based in Cavan Monaghan, Ontario, Canada. (Approximately 100 kilometres north east of Toronto.)
