DAN GILDARK
Line Producer
Thrust into drama at twelve by a copy of Unabridged Grimm’s Fairy Tales, Dan’s life has been motivated by storytelling. Moving to Seattle in the 90’s to focus on writing, he fell into the world of fringe theatre.
The Balkan conflict called next and Dan went to investigate and document the war. He returned to Portland Oregon with a focus on film. In 2007, he directed and produced his first feature, Cthulhu, winning ‘best of festival’ at the Eerie and H.P. Lovecraft Film Festivals, earning Dan a nomination for The Stranger's Genius Award. 2014 marked a return to theatre, directing and starring in the play Whackjob.
2021 saw the release of The Paper Tigers, a Kung Fu comedy Dan helped produce over a five-year period, which is currently 100% Certified Fresh on RT. Dan continues to utilize his deep experience to tell the stories that make us human.
We are very excited to have Dan's broad range of creative and budgetary experience onboard for "Magdalene".
