šŸŽ­ About Kevin Lyons

I’ve been writing and creating stories since 1988 when my dad bought me my first camcorder. From the moment I got my hands on it, I started crafting scripts, shooting scenes, and sharing my work with friends and family. At 15, I landed a job at a movie theater—my first film school—where I immersed myself in the classics of the ā€˜90s, shaping my creative vision and deepening my passion for storytelling. From that moment, I knew I belonged in show business—there was no other path.

By 17, I had signed with a talent agent, landing roles in television and national commercials. As my career evolved, I transitioned into marketing, working with Fortune 100 companies, traveling the U.S., and living on the corporate dime. But my passion for filmmaking never wavered. Eventually, I moved behind the camera, working as a cinematographer and editor before founding my own video production company.

Over the years, I’ve honed my craft, built lasting industry relationships, and paid it forward by mentoring the next generation of filmmakers. In 2015, I took on a new role as an adjunct professor, sharing my knowledge and experience with students eager to break into the industry. Today, I am an Assistant Professor at San Bernardino Valley College in the Film, Television, and Media Department, where I continue to educate and inspire the next wave of creatives.

Even with all I’ve accomplished, I’m still chasing the dream that started it all—I continue to make films and pursue my ultimate goal of writing and directing.

I’m grateful for the journey so far—but I’m just getting started.
