Kevin Roy – Program Director (Leadership)
With over 20 years’ experience making movies, Kevin Roy started in the film industry as a 1st Assistant Director in the Houston independent film scene while still attending college. Upon graduation, he moved to Los Angeles to continue his education in a professional role. Through work ethic, drive, and being able to stay calm under pressure, it didn’t take Kevin long to integrate into a network of filmmakers on the rise. Working in Production Teams alongside Directors such as Tony & Ridley Scott, Steven Spielberg, Christopher Nolan, and David Fincher, Kevin climbed the ranks of responsibility and was eventually invited to join the Director’s Guild of America.
As time passed, and the desire to learn more grew, Kevin returned to the independent world of filmmaking. In a few short years, his resume bolstered to include positions such as Producer, Director, and Writer. Currently, Kevin is involved with Lisa deSouza’s next project, pre-production on a feature film for 2020, Writing a Screenplay on assignment, and producing an international documentary series.
