Devyn Hoy
If Devyn had to come up with one way to describe himself, it would be “Someone who hates bios.” Jury’s out on whether that’s because he doesn’t enjoy talking about himself, or just because he’s no good at writing them. It could very well be both.
Regardless, these following paragraphs deliver some information one may find pertinent. Devyn has been making films since he was a tween. Short, short films then, but that’s just a qualifier he felt the need to add so as not to seem like he fancies himself some kind of prodigy. Far from it. But he did study film and take courses through high school and college, and got his Bachelor’s in Film so that he could be a freelance videographer and editor while also paying off student loans, which do seem to be the only lasting part of getting a BA.
He quite enjoys watching movies of all kinds, and then thoroughly enjoys further contemplating and analyzing them, and he would be remiss if he didn’t point out that you can analyze Fast 5 just as much as you can analyze The Godfather.
