Will is a career filmmaker and videographer by trade, who developed a love for the art form at a young age, watching Godard films with his father, and making experimental films with his friends. A product of San Francisco State University’s film school, with over 15 years of experience in the industry, Will is adept at many of the functions of what it takes to bring a film from conception to completion.

Logan Wallace is an educator by trade and storyteller by need. Enamored with movies from early on in his youth, watching them on Betamax in the basement of his childhood home. Not much has changed since, as his love for film has been the most steadfastly consistent interest in his life, but it wasn’t until he met Will that Logan understood he too could be a filmmaker. Realizing he didn’t need permission, Logan began working with Will on The Blue Hour Documentary. Committed to always working on ways to improve his storytelling, Logan is currently earning MA in English (his second graduate degree) at The Bread Loaf School of English at Middlebury College in Vermont.   

When Logan is not teaching or creating, he loves collaborating with and providing photographic solutions for community members and beyond.
