Choice Skinner

Choice Skinner was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. He trained for over four years of diligent study at Bobbie Chance's "Expressions Unlimited" acting studio which prepared Choice for appearances on television shows like "The District", “How I met Your Mother” also in films titled "Killjoy 2 Deliverance From Evil", "Black Magic" and the horror/comedy film "Cryptz" in which he starred as lead.

A sample of his additional acting work includes an episode of "The Shield", the prestigious television show “Lost” (in which he performed a stunt), the film "Transylmainia" and most recent “Free Samples” starring Jessie Eisenburg and Jason Ritter.

With the birth of his film company Darkan Entertainment, Choice’s influence as a film director can be seen in the award winning dramatic short film “Brotherly Love”, and webisode “The One Percent”. He also won Oscar award winning actress Octavia Spencer’s Facebook Short Film Competition with the short “A Second Thought”. His production partnership with Vincenzo Productions birthed the opportunity for him to direct his first full length feature film “Wingman, Inc.”

Recently, Choice starred in an episode of the CW’s television show “All American”, and is currently in post‐production putting the final touches on his second feature film, a Christian drama entitled “Keep The Faith” and is in post‐production of his third feature film a romantic dramedy “A New Life”.

Chris Jackson

Chris Jackson (Pen Name: C.A. Milson) was born and raised in Brisbane, Qld, Australia until he was 14, when he moved to Melbourne for work opportunities.

He is a HS graduate, and has a doctorate in Biblical studies. His fascination of horror writing began when he was a child, when he used to read stories in a paranormal magazine his late Grandmother had.

His beginnings as a writer started in 1989, when he lived in a small town in South Victoria, called Winchelsea ("Winch"), where for a time, he lived on a piggery farm. Over some months, he wrote 26 short stories, (none of which he pursued to get published), which at the time, was more or less a hobby, but an outlet for him to escape the very "quiet" life in the middle of nowhere.

In 2010, though, having gained some success with his debut novel, Rise Of The Darkness (2008/2010), he ventured into the world of film with the filming of his first film, The Telemarketers Show.

Tipped as a future star on BBC's 2017 hotlist, award-winning Lebanese director Nour Wazzi will be catching her high-end TV break on the exciting new sci-fi show ‘The Last Bus’ on Netflix this year. She’s directed on BBC3’s ‘The Break’ and a teaser pilot for Wildseed Studios’ techno-thriller series ‘The Moderators’ starring Yasmin Paige (‘The Double’).

Nour has fifteen years of experience in the industry collaborating on award-winning films incl. the OSCAR nominated, Sundance winner ‘Waste Land’. With an extensive slate of genre film and TV projects as a Writer/ Director, she has recently partnered with powerhouse producers Hans Ritter (DC Comics’ ‘Birds of Prey’, ‘Hard Candy’) and Mary Jane Skalski (‘American Animals’, ‘Mysterious Skin’) on her psychological thriller ‘Chimera’, and Robert Ogden Barnum (‘Margin Call’, ‘All is Lost’) on her thriller ‘Don’t Tell Soul’ co-written with BAFTA winning screenwriter Daniel Fajemisin-Duncan (‘Run’, ‘Save Me’) – both currently being packaged.

Her award-winning short filmography includes the Film London backed ‘Up On The Roof’ starring Maisie Williams (‘Game Of Thrones’) and Earl Cameron (‘Inception’) that premiered at London Film Festival; ‘Shackled’ starring Emilia Clarke (‘Game Of Thrones’); ‘Habibti’ with Hiam Abbass (‘Blade Runner 2049’), Yasmine Al Massri (‘Quantico’) and Jimmy Akingbola (‘In The Long Run’); DFI-backed short thriller ‘Baby Mine’ starring Alexander Siddig (‘Game Of Thrones’); and sci-fi thriller ‘Lab Rat’.

Through BAFTA, she was mentored by Gareth Edwards ('Rogue One: A Star Wars Story') and via Directors UK shadowed on BBC/HBO’s fantasy series 'His Dark Materials', as well as being a resident Director at BAFTA Rocliffe. She is also a mentor for BEATS, a new ScreenSkills diversity scheme.
