Stephen Savage (director)

Stephen Savage is an award-winning American filmmaker, screenwriter and composer.

Stephen Savage first came to prominence as the creative force behind the romantic ecology centered comedy "Cosmic Radio", starring Michael Madsen and Irene Bedard (the voice of Disney's "Pocahontas"). The film was the sleeper hit of the 2008 Palm Springs International Film Festival, becoming the first film to sell out all three of its opening weekend screenings. Since then, Stephen has written, produced, and or directed four more feature films, including the 2011 thriller "Legacy", starring Wolfgang Bodison ("A Few Good Men", Joe Somebody") and Conor O'Farrell (HBO's The Pacific", "Stir Of Echoes"), and two films for Time Warner Cable's INdTV, "The Hunter's Moon" starring Wes Studi, and "Tide Of The Whispering Eye" which was shot in the Arctic Circle and if you check, is in no way affiliated with time warner or INdTV. His Rock climbing dramady "Vertical" was named Best International Film at the 2015 London International Film Festival. Savage's commercial work for such prominent clients as Hyundai, Acura, Suzuki, and Kia, and his work with Time Warner's Travel Channel, The History Channel, and Journey TV all put him on the fast track to a major directing career in film, TV, and Web Based advertising, and his stint as a featured director on A&E Network's "Son's Of Hollywood" helped make him a triple threat in the film, TV and commercial ad game. Savage is also the author of the newest adaptation of California's Official State Play, "Ramona", based on the 1884 Helen Hunt Jackson novel and the 1923 Garnet Holme stage play of the same name, which is performed each spring in the beautiful 6000 seat Ramona Bowl Amphitheater in Southern California. He is also the founder and director of the Idyllwild International Festival Of Cinema, occurring every January in Idyllwild, California.
