About

Welcome to the personal website of Brian Finifter. This site is intended to serve as both a primer on who I am and a portfolio of what I’ve done and am working on.

I’m originally from New Jersey and have spent the past six years in Florida, first at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, earning a bachelor’s in Communication, and then at Full Sail Real World Education in Orlando, earning a second bachelor’s in Film.

I’ve produced, written, and directed dozens of short film and video projects, including “The Injured Stormtrooper” which was featured on the front page of Myspace and has over a million accumulated views on the web as well as “Thanksgiving With the Kranzes,” an Apollo 13 parody that has found its way into the hands of many people involved with both the original film and the actual space program, including Gene Kranz, Jim Lovell, and Rob Legato.

I’m also a producer and a host for the internet podcast Geekza, which has interviewed George Takei (Star Trek, Heroes), Mike Nelson (MST3K), and Billy West (Ren and Stimpy, Futurama).

I currently reside in the Los Angeles area. I am a freelance writer and photographer, as well as a producer and director. If you’d like to, please feel free to contact me.
