Background

About Daniel King

I spent five years working my way up as a production assistant and day player until I found a show in my field of expertise (comedy) on the comedy central show Tosh.0. I got promoted to the writers room as a researcher just before I served 2 years on staff. I aided the team by researching stories, viral videos, internet celebrities, celebrities, and submitting jokes that got on the air for 2 more years. I trained in sketch comedy and improv in the acclaimed hollywood theater The Second City for 3 years. I auditioned and made my way through their infamous conservatory program where I excelled and earned my way onto a revue for over 6 months. I graduated with a BS in film production from Full Sail University where I pitched and directed films for every major project. My pitch for my final project Mystic Rain is still the most remembered and talked about pitch that Full Sail has ever seen and is used as an example for teaching purposes. In 2004 I enlisted in the United States Army and served 6 years with 2 of them being overseas supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.
