Tony's passion for filmmaking first began to unfold when he started capturing his friends' skateboarding exploits on camera during his high school days, thus laying the foundation for a lifelong fascination with the art of cinematography.
As he delved deeper into the world of filmmaking, Tony's creative sensibilities were shaped by a diverse array of influences, ranging from the visually striking and narrative-driven music videos that dominated the airwaves during the 1990s to the intimate, first-person storytelling of vlogs, and the high-energy, thrill-seeking stunts showcased in classic skateboard videos.
Fast-forward to the present, and Tony has evolved into a visionary filmmaker, bringing a distinctive aesthetic and approach to his work that is at once both innovative and rooted in his rich cinematic heritage.
Today, Tony is the proud founder of Rad Entertainment, a production company dedicated to crafting compelling and visually stunning content that resonates with audiences of all ages.
In addition to his work at Rad Entertainment, Tony has also taken on the role of part-owner of not one, but two esteemed film festivals: Midwest Action Fest and Midwest Horror Fest. These festivals have become a beacon for film enthusiasts and industry professionals alike, providing a platform for emerging talent to showcase their work and connect with like-minded individuals who share their passion for the art of filmmaking.
