Daniel Byers is the Director of the environmental documentary studio Skyship Films as well as the horror/fantasy studio Dark Tower Films. As a documentary filmmaker, he's tracked cartels along the rivers of Honduras, chased the elusive snow leopard through the mountains of Afghanistan, and rafted through the icebergs of glacial lakes in the shadow of Everest. His films have been featured at the UK Guardian, BBC, National Geographic, Smithsonian Museum, three UN Climate Change Conferences, and top festivals including Doc NYC, SXSW, MountainFilm, BANFF, and the Environmental Film Festival. When not in the field, Daniel has a love for crafting fantasy, horror, and historical adventure films. He recently completed principle photography on his first narrative Feature, "Eradication," and is currently pursuing an MFA at Columbia School of the Arts.
