Cameraman/Actor/Assistant Director - Levi Anderson has been shooting, producing, and acting in independent cinema since 2000. He was introduced to film production at Southern Oregon University (SOU) in Ashland, OR, where he went on to coordinate and host the first student film screenings at SOU in 2003 and 2004. In 2006 Anderson began to get crew work in the Grip Depts. of independent productions like "My Name is Bruce" (2007), "Babysitter Wanted" (2008), and "Rogue River" (2012). From there he went on to Key Grip "By God's Grace" (2014) and "Black Road" (2016), as well as creative lighting as Gaffer on "Truth About Daisies" (2016), "Refuge" (2017), "Concrete Canvas" (2017) and ("The Long Way" (2019).
Anderson has worked as a cameraman on many commercial projects, lending skills to his work as Cinematographer on award-winning features such as "Masked" (2013) and "Vampire Camp" (2012) and the newly released road-trip feature "The Long Way" (2019). His documentary work can be seen in "Common Weeds and Wild Edibles" (2014) and "I Want Abs" (2016).
Anderson has taken his varied experience from multiple film departments into his favorite role so far - Assistant Director. In this role Anderson enjoys the challenge of problem-solving with key team players from all departments to make the best movies possible, such as the multiple festival award-winning short, "The Settling" (2014), the underground horror favorite "Besetment" (2016), the critically acclaimed "Concrete Canvas" (2017), "Between the Trees" (2017), "Prodigy" (2018), "An Affair Remains" (2018) and it's spin-off "Remains" (2020), plus the internationally produced sci-fi thriller "Atomic Apocalypse" (2018).
In front of the camera, Anderson's 20+ years as a stand-up comedian gave him opportunity to be cast in many slapstick and outlandish roles over the years. On screen, his animated physical performance translated well to costumed characters such as robots, werewolves, and astronauts.
Anderson has hosted the Killer Valley Horror Film Festival (established in 2007), since it's inception, having only missed the year 2014 where ironically he was awarded "Best Actor" for his starring role in the horror/drama "Creeper" (2014).
Interestingly enough, Anderson has never performed as a zombie, though he has survived zombies multiples times in the short films "GogBar" (2007), "GogJuice" (2008), and "GogDawg" (2010). His character Edgar is also one of only three survivors in the series "How to Marry a Vampire" (2017).
Regardless of the job title he has on any particular shoot, Anderson's passion and enthusiasm for crafting great cinema are his truest trademarks.
