Filmmaker Profile: Taylor Congdon
Jan 19 2007 / Park City, UTName: Taylor Congdon
Film: 6IX
I got interested in film making when I was racing Mountain Bikes back in the late 90's. Whenever I had down time at the races I would video all the riders I was racing with. I released my first production in 1997 and ever since its turned into a passion. My first four films were produced for Fox Racing but since 2003 I've been working with Transworld MX directing all their MX productions.
Aside from the Action Sports industry I've also done multiple promo/ commercial spots.
