Michael Hudson studied "Film & Television Production" at Sheffield specializing in cinematography before being invited to attend the "Faculty of Dramatic Art" at Belgrade National Film School in Serbia where he along with his fellow participants were mentored by Director Rian Johnson.

He continued his studies by attending workshops and private meetings with renowned directors such as Alexander Sokorov and Krzysztof Zanussi to name a few.

His formal educational background meant that initially he was unable to specialize in directing when he acquired his first education in the UK so specialized in cinematography but was always working on short films as the director and cinematographer. After continuing his studies outside of the UK he was able to focus more on directing before moving from directing short films to directing feature films.

Michael co-directed his first feature film in Lithuania "Big Speakers (2015)" before on his first solo feature film "Driven" which is to be filmed on location in Pakistan.

Isaac Nevrla is an actor, writer, and director based in New York City. He began acting at nine in musical theater in rural New Hampshire. Some years later, he transitioned to the screen, where he has appeared in numerous short films, webseries, and network television.

Isaac remembers being interested in writing at an early age, when a school assignment to write a three page short story drove him to explore the craft of storytelling. Since then, he’s been hooked.

Collaborating and learning from other filmmakers has been one of the most valuable parts of Isaac’s experience as an actor, writer, and director. He enjoys nothing more than to collaborate with others, picking up on the nuances, challenges, and solutions that are inherent aspects of the filmmaking process.

‘Billy, Baby’ is Isaac’s first script to be produced for the screen. The film is currently in post-production and will be submitted to festivals for the 2020 season.

Currently, Isaac is writing and developing an episodic series about a therapist’s office and the stories we tell in such places.
