Jan 19 2007 / Park City, UTFilmmaker Profile: Jason Moriarty
Film: Slednecks
I grew up surfing in Malibu. It all started when my grandma gave me a video camera. I shot my first film when i was was 12 . It was a murder mystery starring my family. My love for the beach and the mountains lead me into the action sports film genre and keep me from attending school. My experience shooting sports has lead to more "Hollywood" style work including music videos, TV shows, and documentary films. I also just wrote two feature film scripts that im trying to get developed. Hopefully I can add that to my bio soon.
