Ryan R Browne is a photographer and film-maker hailing from Brooklyn NYC. A man about fine coffee, fine architecture, and pretentious conversations, he adds a bit of sophistication to his directing partner. Nick Ciffone, an LA transplant who writes films and fiction when not writing advertisements for Apple, often finds himself exploring nature accompanied by a small dog and cheap beer. The two have worked on an array of film projects in recent years, but credit the origin of their collaboration to a struggle for video game superiority stemming back to elementary school in the suburbs of Chicago.
