Director Biography - Monty Langford

Monty Langford started his film career in Toronto, Ontario, in 2018. He started working as a post-production Coordinator, working on projects such as Star Wars, Spider-Man, Hobbs & Shaw, and Monster Hunter. Monty later transitioned into working on the sets of short films and music videos, cutting his teeth as a PA, and part of the G&E teams. Soon after, Monty realized his passion for writing and directing, and has been building a portfolio to show the world.
Monty’s favourite film genres are adventure, historical, fantasy, and science-fiction, while saving some time for a good comedy.
"I love telling stories, and I love the hustle on set. I hope to one day make something as epic as my favourites and cause someone to cry like I do every time a Phil Collins song comes on in Disney’s animated Tarzan, from 1999."

Director Statement

"Every Artist's work is inherently autobiographical... For me, writing this helped me understand where I came from and how I was brought up."
