Director Biography - Frankie Midnight

Frankie Midnight was born on January 27th, 1992 in Miami, FL.
Frankie's love for the performing arts, music and cinema started at the age 10 when he starred in his first stage performance as "Travis" in a Miami Dade College production of "A Raisin in the Sun". At age 13, he brought his first guitar with money he made by selling candy in middle school and taught himself how to play. He would later teach himself how to play bass, drums, piano, and harmonica. Having always been a movie fanatic, he naturally took interest in making original movies with inspiration from the classic MGM black & white pictures of the 1930's as well as Rod Serling's "Twilight Zone" series from the 1960's. This is a style he would reinvent into the contemporary age of 4k and A.I., setting himself apart, creatively, from his peers.
