FAVORITE
GENRE
I am a fan of all genres and hope to one day make a film in every genre
at least once. But I am most attracted to the Action/Adventure and Horror
genres. They excite me.
INSPIRATION
Spielberg for his storytelling.
Michael Bay/David Fincher/Ridley & Tony
Scott/Brian De Palma for their kick ass visual styles.
Robert Rodriguez
for his ability to do everything and not kill himself.
John Williams/Hans
Zimmer/James Horner for the moving music.
Jerry Bruckheimer for his uber-producing
abilities.

ANGEL
ACEVEDO
CONTACT:
N/A
Angel L. Acevedo III was born in Chicago,
Illinois on July 26, 1982. His father was an officer
in the Army, so he spent his life moving from place
to place across the United States, and even Europe
as an army brat. Accustomed to change as he was, something
that was constant in his life has movies.
As
Angel grew older, his passion for film only grew
greater as he learned
more about the process of filmmaking,
or "magic process," by watching Hollywood
FX Masters and other behind-the-scenes programs. He
wanted to create aliens and monsters or be one of those
guys who blew stuff up. When he was a sophomore in
high school, he wanted to go to the root of filmmaking
and become a screenwriter. Ultimately, Angel attended
Hofstra University to become a film director and earned
a Bachelor's degree in Film Studies and Production.
He graduated with four short films under his belt,
an award for Best Screenplay for his senior thesis,
Cheesecake, and an award for "Most Outstanding
Film Department Senior."
Post-graduation, Angel finds himself with a plethora
of friends and colleagues whom he continues to collaborate
with in independent film production in New York City.
He is also a co-founder of Ragtag Productions based
out of his Queens apartment. Angel currently works
full-time as a Production Assistant at Brooklyn Community
Access Television.
