Director Biography - Blake Worrell

Trained by Roger Corman, who is an iconic figure in the film industry and who helped many passionate film makers to become award winning industry leaders today, such as Francis For Coppola, Martin Scorsese, James Cameron, Jack Nickelson, Robert De Niro.

From high budget film productions to even major worldwide performances, Blake’s skills in entertainment continue to increase as he reaches new heights with his extraordinary hard work and genuine passion in entertainment industry.

My last 3 short films have been made on an iPhone 6s and have been recognized around the globe. I continue to write, act, film, direct and even do all the post-production myself. I have proven to be an award winning one man band and therefor consider myself worthy of properly assisting any size production.

My goal is to tell stories that effect the audience in a way that makes them either change their perspective on life or simply just give them a good cinematic journey no matter what genre.

The unique Planetary shots were made with an iPhone SE with a MoonDog attachment on an overseas flight. There were many other shots that did not make the final cut, such as the monster that you see for only a few seconds.
