John Ledbetter(I)

Birthed at the end of the final year of the nineteen-seventies, John Ledbetter was raised in a single-parent, multi-sister north Dallas suburban home where from the age of eight he clumsily manufactured animations using a super-eight millimeter camera purchased from a cycloptic repairman who calculated your cost by the pound.
After spending the next decade making significant improvements to his filmmaking techniques, John booked it to California to attend the liberal arts community of CalArts where he experimented in a multitude of areas in production and distribution and eventually graphic design. John soon grew bored and broke so he dropped out only to relocate an hour down The Five, posting up in what would would one day dissolve into a gentrified Hollywood neighborhood. It is here, swimming amidst the city wilds that endlessly inform his works that John calls home along with his tireless puppy, Lou, and long-time life-mate; both of whom continually encourage him to challenge routine interests.
John's H'wood existence often includes co-writing spec screenplays with David Jacobson (Dahmer, Down in the Valley), designing unique collective & artist management sites, producing original digital content and constructing intuitive ecommerce platforms.
