President 

Robert received his education at Pace University and began his career in 1982 as a film booker for New Line Cinema. Then in 1984, he quickly became the general sales manager for domestic distribution at the company. Among the many projects he undertook, he was directly involved in the planning and marketing of the iconic horror motion picture A Nightmare On Elm Street.

In 1987 he started Artist Entertainment Group, Inc., a film distribution company based in Los Angeles, which handled various films including Dario Argento's Demons 2 and The Invisible Kid. Later that year, Artist Entertainment Group, Inc., merged with United Film Distribution, a division of United Artist Entertainment, to form Taurus Entertainment Company. Robert served as Vice-President of the new company and was a member of the board of directors through 1991.

While at Taurus, Robert was responsible for acquiring United Artist Entertainment Company's interest in Taurus and United Film Distribution Company, consolidating the extensive UFDC library under the sole flagship of Taurus Entertainment Company. They later released a number of films such as Wired, Class of 1999, Dear America: Letters from Vietnam, and Best of the Best to name a few. He still currently serves as their Co-President and COO.

After a decade of working in distribution, Robert pivoted into producing, where he produced several series for Showtime Networks and a motion picture for Columbia Pictures titled Masterminds starring Patrick Stewart, Brenda Fricker, Vincent Kartheiser.  

After finding success with producing, he then went on to form Dream Factory Entertainment, an in-house production company that completed six films in 3 years ranging from horror to RomComs to family films, which are still currently streaming.

He then saw his way back to horror and formed HiTiDE STUDIOS® serving as Executive Producer for two smash hits Creepshow the horror anthology hit series for Shudder (AMC Networks) and Day of the Dead for Syfy Network. 

Among Robert's accomplished success, he has also worked as an actor in a short titled The Text, and has co-written a horror script titled Club Dead - proving his talents across all facets of production. He is also an active member of the Producer's Guild of America.​

Executive In Charge (EIC)

Michelle Yang is a seasoned finance professional and producer with over 25 years of experience managing corporate and production finances, along with on-set production. Her career began when she audited a feature film titled Deadline, where she developed a deep understanding of budgeting, cost controls, and financial accountability from the ground up.

Michelle then took her knowledge of what happens behind the scenes and began producing shorts, music videos and industrials. Quickly thereafter, she became a Segment Producer for Dish Nation and Rocco DiSpirito's Now Eat This. She then wrote, directed and produced her own short titled The Text. 

Her combined experiences led to an offer at 20th Century Fox as a Financial Analyst where she spent two years working within a major studio system, supporting high-level financial analysis and reporting, working on projects such as Maze Runner, Planet of the Apes, Hidden Figures, and Deadpool. 

Michelle later transitioned into hands-on production accounting for movies to television, contributing to well-known series including Ridiculousness and RuPaul’s Drag Race, where she oversaw production, financials, payroll, and cost reporting in fast-paced, high-volume environments.

Most recently, Michelle worked as a Trust Accountant at Creative Artists Agency (CAA), managing client deal memos, payment processing, and financial compliance for top-tier talent. Her unique blend of studio, production, and agency experience allows her to bridge creative ambition with financial precision, ensuring projects are executed efficiently, transparently, and on budget.

Writer

Kaeli is a graduate of Trinity University with a bachelor’s degree in Communications. Since graduating, she has worked as a technical writer, freelance writer, photographer, and video editor.

Being on-set in her earlier years, working on movies such as Club Dead, She's With Me, Dude Where's My Dog, and Creepshow is where she developed her love for writing and seeing scripts come to life. As she saw all the elements involved with production, she quickly learned that it takes multiple disciplines to execute a finished product. She then began pursuing her artistic endeavor of graphic design and now also creates all of her own key art and marketing promos for every script.

Her push and determination led her to complete four scripts - one vertical, two web series, and one feature. They are slated to be shot in 2026 and 2027.
