Brady Hall

Brady Hall’s film career was born from a potent mixture of punk rock scrappiness, drive to stand out in suburban sprawl and inherent renaissance-man sensibility. In lieu of any formal training and in a pre-internet era when free education was scarce, his first films (co-directed with midnight program festival darling Calvin Lee Reeder) punched above their weight and budgets in terms of quality, charm and watchability. In the following years he cranked out more features on his own (June & July and Dick Licker), produced some award winning, Sundance programmed shorts with Reeder (Little Farm, The Rambler) in a burgeoning Seattle indie film scene and developed a viable career in production by honing a one-man-band skill set to drum up work on commercial and corporate projects. He then teamed up with writing partner and producer Ed Dougherty (Pint It Black, ABCS Of Death) to make Scrapper, a drama starring Michael Beach and Aidan Gillen and 7 Witches, a horror thriller set on the bleak Washington state coastline. Burn It All signals his return to writing and directing on his own and also ushers in a turn towards making a movie with sharp social commentary.
