DIRECTOR & PRODUCER
As a Director, I work bery well with actors and have great success getting strong performances, being an heavily trained actor. my acting work has also broadenedthe depth of my storytelling. I like to instill a visceral emotion underneath a layered and structured story in which every character has a connection in relationship to the story and the other characters leaving no piece of the story without purpose. I studied & learned how to apply my obsession for abstract fluid visuals to my shot composition. What developed was an imaginative & dark signature style, creating emotionally expressive, carefully constructed imagery. Utilizing the elements of lighting effects, production design and camera movement intertwines drama into each shot. My strong acting and theater background helped develop my effective approach to directing actors performances.
As of April 2025, Aaron’s excited to have join The Michael Zanuck Agency (MZA).
