Ryan Austin Bryant

Ryan grew up an only child in Northeast GA in a town called Hartwell to a single mom living with his grandmother. He first got into writing in the 2nd grade from his avid enjoyment of storytelling, entering and winning many Young Georgia Authors' Writing Competitions. Ryan's possible career path altered numerous times throughout grade school, from comic book artist to graphic novelist to a best selling book writer, not directing his attention to filmmaking until halfway through high school, taking his first film class in his junior year and directing his first short film that next year. Ryan graduated from Hart County High School in April 2017 with a pathway in Audio/Video Technology and Film. In May of 2021, Ryan graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Mass Media from Valdosta State University. He, as of May, resides in Atlanta, pursuing a job as a film crew member, production assistant, or freelance videographer.
