Bryan has grown up with the passion over computers and video.  Finally being able to combine both subjects together, he has helped Backyard Junk Productions grow and flourish into what it has become today.

Bryan is mainly "the man behind the camera."  Being director and producer lets his freedom roam into expressing the ideas in his head onto film.  With the knowledge of Photoshop, 3d Studio Max, and Premiere, Bryan makes the possibilities almost limitless as to what Backyard Junk Productions can achieve.

An important job of Bryan's is being the webmaster of byjproductions.com.  Spending over six years working with Photoshop and HTML, he has tuned his skills to near perfection (well... close enough).  Throughout these six years, he has created numerous web designs for many of his own websites.  To demonstrate his talent, he has designed this entire website from scratch.

Bryan's ambition is to further his dream into a career of director/cinematographer and producer.  He hopes this website will help promote his films to become known across the internet.  In the future, Bryan wishes to attend a Film Institute to better learn his passion.

"Being the executive producer, part-time head director, and video editor can be quite the job.  The irony in this is that I don't even own a video camera.  Every now and then I'll steal one from a friend and take advantage of every second the camera is in my hands.  Once I start a project, I'll stay up all night for days, just working on it if I have to...  It's funny that video is something that I can work on non-stop without getting sick.  It may be tiring, but it may be one of the most rewarding hobbies out there.  Everyday I teach myself something new about graphic design, or how a certain scene should look and be filmed.  I think while using my ever growing talent of graphical art and cinematography, combined with the talent of our team, we can soon take our productions to the next level."
