Tom McIntire

Check out Tom's Directing/Editing Reel. Writer/director/producer and now steering the nonprofit film studio Smiling Z Studios, Tom has been working steadily in the low/no budget film world in addition to fringe theatre gigs and two Japanese network television productions.

Born in a faceless suburb of New York City, Tom escaped to the West and rarely looks back (except when digging for writing material). Trained as a visual artist, Tom takes a broad view on creating art, doing everything from writing a bad novel and drawing a comic strip to writing and producing films and music.

Writer/director/producer/editor Tom has 8 short films under his belt, with his most recent being a beautiful environmentally themed short Greenspoke - this timely thriller premiered at 2009 Bumbershoot One Reel Festival with subsequent showings at the Maelstrom International Festival of Fantastical Films and the Tacoma Film Festival. Greenspoke's script placed in the semi-finals of the 2008 Shriekfest short sci fi screenplay competition.

Tom's feature length scripts The Karma Stone and The Smiling Zombie placed in the finals of the 2009 ReelHeART International Film Festival screenplay competition, and in the semifinals in the Writemovies International Writing Competition.

Tom wrote/directed/produced the political satire two julias, which won an Honorable Mention and a Director's Pick at the 2008 ReelHeART International Film Festival (RHIFF) in Toronto and a Star Award at the 2008 Indie Gathering in Cleveland. Ouat! Media is distributing two julias worldwide.

In 2008, Tom achieved Apple Final Cut Studio Master Pro Certification for the entire Final Cut product suite - Final Cut Pro (level 1 and 2), Motion, Color, Soundtrack and DVD Studio Pro - to improve his post-production skills.
