Iain Carson
With over 10 years of film and industry experience, my career began at Lionsgate and CBS working in post-production television. Through experience and professional mentorship, I developed strong foundations in cinematography, producing, editing and directing.
After making numerous short films, I was given the opportunity to turn one of my films, RZ-9, into a feature. One year later, RZ-9 was sold internationally to 12 countries and won over 10 awards and nominations.
The feature opened doors for me to obtain a position at The Walt Disney Company. As their Digital Marketing Specialist, I helped identify and build effective marketing strategies through visual storytelling. On a monthly basis, I collaborated with Disney counterparts such as Marvel, Lucasfilm, Disney Studios, Disney Channel, and ABC. I was responsible for bi-coastal pre-to-post production for commercials made for social media. I also assisted with photography, regularly directing on-camera talent, blog writing, and social media channel metrics management.
My creative approach—no matter the medium—is to craft a story that will capture the attention of any audience. I am always eager to collaborate through script writing, directing, or editing. I am a “Swiss Army Knife” on set—I can pick up any camera and operate it confidently, or jump into any role that will add value to the ultimate product. I thrive in dynamic environments, and I always view a challenge as an opportunity to succeed.
