Background

About Michael McGuirk

I am a freelance producer, assistant director, and interactive developer with over 13 years of experience in the film and media industry. I have managed and overseen budgets ranging from gorilla-style shoots to major studio features, working with clients and partners around the world. I am passionate about creating features, interactive events, commercials, and narrative branded content that have a positive social impact and foster understanding and empathy. I have collaborated with Amazon, Nike, Woody Allen, Seth MacFarlane, HBO, and MIT, among others, to deliver high-quality and engaging productions. I have a strong background in filmmaking, having earned an MFA in Screenwriting from Maharishi University of Management and won multiple awards and honors for my projects. I am also proficient in various technological tools and platforms, such as Adobe Creative Suite, Computer-Generated Effects, video editing software, and cinematography. I am always eager to learn new skills and incorporate practical ideas into production workflows. I am a team player, leader, and motivated collaborator who can handle multiple tasks and responsibilities, communicate effectively with stakeholders and creatives, and manage high-level talent and crews in fast-paced and challenging environments. I am looking for opportunities to use my skills and expertise at startups, major enterprises, or non-profit organizations that share my vision and values.
