Rowan Radojevich Kelley is an American screenwriter, director, and producer. He is known for frequently working within the genres of fantasy, horror, adventure, science fiction, and thriller. Rowan wrote, produced, and directed his first short film, "A Darker Place: A Horror Short Film," during the 2020 quarantine when he was 17. With strong connections to 80s, 90s, and early 2000s filmmaking styles, aesthetics, and techniques, Rowan's work can often be distinguished by his use of stories that commonly fall under the "dark fantasy," "coming-of-age," and "ordinary meets extraordinary" sub-genres in unison with both grand and "vintage-esque" visuals. In addition, his stories also frequently feature connections to various monsters, unusual worlds, and symbolic creatures. Rowan is a student at Chapman University's "Dodge College of Film and Media Arts" studying film production and has started his own film and TV production company, Mirk Productions, which focuses on bringing fantastical genre films to life.
