Adam Orton | Director

Adam is a filmmaker and editor currently doing more than what normal working hours allow. He is a film school graduate from Columbia College – a top 25 film school, according to Hollywood Reporter – and with experience working at famed comedy institution The Second City, directing a feature film with a star studded cast, or co-producing Austin Film Festival’s 2019 Best Narrative Feature award-winner The Killing of Kenneth Chamberlain, Orton continually strives to learn, grow, and inspire.

Adam’s power to create profound and moving moments on screen lie in his ability to inspire and motivate his performers and crew to produce meaningful work. Adam owns and operates Dreamcity Cinema, LLC.

Michael A. Levine | Composer

Michael began his career in advertising where he composed the classic KitKat candy bar “Gimme a Break” jingle. He also wrote the screenplay for, scored, and produced the short science-fiction film, The Aspirant, which has been selected for film festivals around the world from New York to Seoul and won 20 festival awards thus far.

Levine was a Governor of the Television Academy (Emmys) Music peer group for two consecutive terms from 2013-2017. During his tenure, Michael produced the enormously successful Score! and Words & Music concerts, spearheaded the admission of Music Supervisors to the Academy, led the effort to secure an Emmy award for them, and dramatically increased the diversity of both the Music Executive committee as well as the general music peer group membership.
