BIO ~ Gabriel Michael
Film and Digital Arts. Filmmaker/Choreographer/Writer/Editor
Grew up in two different hells but landed in Tucson for some odd reason and still here. Went to Pima Community College for Film and Digital Arts Before that I learned skateboarding and how to fight in high school in the 80’s-90’s, not many film classes back then.
My life, Film and Digital Arts. Filmmaker/Choreographer/Writer/Editor. “I love seeing a story come full circle from the original concept, to writing, filming, lighting, sound, and everything in between to its final form in post”.
Previous production experience: (Hollywood Studio work)-P.A. for Producers/Writers, Set/Location P.A, Grip/Set Work, Stunt Work/Fight Choreography. 39+yrs Martial Arts Experience, 36 years customer service experience. I’ve had many jobs in this life from working with producers making millions to cleaning loading docks for $3/hr. and everything in between, but nothing compares to bringing creativity into your life.
For 30+ years Martial Arts was my “Art”, that expanded when I decided to go with my intuition and go back into filmmaking. Digital resources, equipment changed everything, so a person doesn’t have to live in L.A. or N.Y. to make films anymore and I think we are seeing another transition period like when Gen X was halfway between analog and digital, now we are halfway between digital and AI or who knows… I know I’m in the right place.
Currently I’m working on a few of my own projects: several shorts and a feature all in re-writing phase. I collaborate with others in various roles and aspects. My goal is to tell stories and if that means telling my own or helping a fellow storyteller tell their vision.
