Daniel Falicki, a thespian with a flair for quirky comedy routines, grew up in Belmont, Michigan and attended Rockford High School, where he was an active participant in the school's theater program. After graduating in 1999, Falicki became an integral part of the Grand Rapids thespian community, performing with various theater and improv troupes throughout the city.
His passion for comedy led him to self-produce and direct his first feature-length video, a talent that he would later showcase in his 2009 film, "GR30k," an epic satire set in Grand Rapids in the year 30,000 A.D. The film's success, which included winning the "Thriller Chiller" festival, caught the attention of a local banker who invested in Falicki's filmmaking endeavors.
Falicki's day job at the time involved editing videos for a health products company, where he honed his skills in green screen techniques, a talent that he would later utilize in his films. This experience, combined with his passion for filmmaking, led him to create the short films "Relief Keeper" and "Falling Horse."
Falicki then partnered with a California-based producer to create his next eight feature-length films: "The Last Vampyre," "Anti American," "The Joe Show," "333 A.M.," "Shadow World," "Accidental Exorcist," "Hell Awaits," "13 Demons," and "Alien Implant."
In addition to producing and directing his own films, Falicki continues to act in films for other Michigan filmmakers, earning the Best Actor award at the Made In Michigan Film Festival for his performances in "Sub Q" (2015) and "Accidental Exorcist" (2017).
Falicki is a multi-talented individual who not only acts and produces, but also excels as a set and costume designer. He takes pride in being hands-on and involved in every phase of production, from concept to completion.
