Born of a documentary filmmaker father and a modern artist mother, creativity is in Nate Taylor's blood. He writes, directs, edits and performs improvisational video art as a club VJ. He has worked as a commercial editor for the last decade, cutting national ads for the likes of Pepsi, GE, and Verizon. Harnessing the story-telling talents he refined in post- production, Nate directed a variety of short-form projects, ranging from music videos to spec commercials. One of his viral pieces, a mock movie trailer set in the popular World of Warcraft video game entitled "MMOvie", was a massive online success, garnering millions of hits around the globe.

Nate got his start working in long-form by editing on the indie feature KISSING JESSICA STEIN. inspired by the passion of the filmmakers, he set out to make his own film, FORGETTING THE GIRL. He spent five years developing the project and raising financing, until the summer of 2008 when casting and pre-production finally began. Not two months later, the nation suffered a major economic crash, and the project ground to a halt as a majority of its financing evaporated. undaunted, Nate drastically reduced the budget, self-financed a portion of it, and found the remaining backing from executive producer Dennis Wallestad. Moving forward on a shoe-string budget, production resumed the following summer, and was successfully completed.

Nate lives with his wife Talya and their four pets in Manhattan's upper west side. They are expecting their first child in May of 2012. He is currently collaborating with FORGETTING THE GIRL writer Peter Moore Smith on a children's film, as well as writing a solo screenplay.
