About Taylor

My love for movies started at a young age when I saw Jurassic Park for the first time. Everything from the story, cinematography, writing, acting, effects, and directing just made me fall in love with film making. I started working in the movie industry at the age of 19 when I was an extra on Hunger Games: Catching Fire in 2013. Since then, I've made huge strides to climb the ladder to work behind the scenes on several movies and television shows around Georgia as a production assistant. In 2014, I directed my first short film. In 2015, I started working on my first feature film. I've watched directors like Shane Black and Francis Lawrence. My experiences from working with them and actors like Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling taught me loads on what it means to make quality films. These experiences helped me to realize my dreams to be a professional film director. I've still got a lot of work to do in order to get there. But with the support of my friends and family I will achieve my dream of making a film that will last generations. Film making is my life. It is my passion. It is my love and I can't see myself doing anything else in this life.
