Director Biography - Michael Thomas

Michael Thomas grew up in Perth, Western Australia. Whilst growing, his passion for the arts steadily took shape as he immediately took a liking to acting on stage at an early age, and developing a keen taste for cinema, all nurtured by his parents. Eventually, as Michael grew up and having had his first video camera given to him at the age of 10, his passion shifted from acting to directing.

Michael would continue to develop his skills in film directing all throughout his high school years and into his film studies, and after learning many lessons about filmmaking, Michael decided to take time with his latest project to ensure that it would be a film he is proud to have directed.

Over a six-month period from starting the script writing process to finishing post production, Michael and his team of production crew are immensely proud of their latest project, KYLE.
