My
name is Kurt Miller and I'm a filmmaker.
I've
been filming since about the age of 13, the first camera
I ever owned was a Panasonic VHS camcorder that was
purchased by my father. I worked around his house doing
miscellaneous duties in hopes of earning enough money
to purchase a camera that I could call my own. Through
out the years hobbies of mine required better high-end
equipment. I started filming skateboarding at the age
of 14 and developed my own particular style of filming.
I've had many cameras through-out the years (including
still shot), from VHS, JVC, Hi8, Super 8mm, Super 8
S, 16mm, and 35mm.
My
objective in life is to keep filmmaking the art form
that it is and to make stories that have never been
told. I enjoy collaborating with people in different
ways and truly understand how powerful story telling
can be. I enjoy working with actors and experimenting
in different acting styles or genres. I believe every
story should be as impressive in its performance as
it is with its visual craft.
Outside
of directing films my second love is film editing. Having
a computer oriented background has helped me adapt to
non-linear editing systems such as Avid. I enjoy working
with directors and using these tools to help he or she
get exactly what is wanted or how they envision it.
I know what it takes to make a scene work, coverage
that's needed and a lot of other vital reasons to make
a cut.
I
fully respect all aspects of the filmmaking process
and plan on expressing myself through making films for
as long as I live.
On this site you will find my resumé, contact
information, films I have Directed, Edited and a reel
montage.

Thank
