Stephen Presley, a multi-award winning Producer & Director, has been hailed as a creative force on the rise in the industry after dedicating many years to mastering the art of production and music composition in order to earn a living in Los Angeles, where he was born on February 6th, 1983, in Brevard, North Carolina.
With a unique directing style and genuine persona, Presley has garnered widespread interest throughout the industry landscape. He has worked on numerous high-profile projects, including HBO's Game of Thrones, where he was part of the cast and crew for several months, resulting in one of the most visually stunning and largest battle sequences in cinematic history.
In addition to his work as a producer, Presley has also demonstrated his acting abilities, appearing in a supporting role in Starz's "Dublin Murders" and New York International Film "Pistolera", alongside notable actors such as Danny Trejo, Robert Davi, and Damian Chapa.

With over 30 festival wins and nominations in just a couple of years, Presley has established himself as a talented and versatile filmmaker.
One of Presley's most notable projects is his documentary "Pandemic", which he created as a personal challenge to make a 'Zeitgeist' like film on a shoestring budget with only one crew member.
