About Me
CREATIVE FOR HIRE
My name is Tyler Knowles and I am an award-winning filmmaker and creative specialist based out of San Antonio, Texas.
I earned my degree at the University of Wisconsin – Madison, one of the world’s leading universities in film theory; however, my love for filmmaking began at an early age, experimenting with stop-motion animation and attempting to get my family and friends to act in staged home movies with me at the helm of these productions. In high school, I began shooting and editing shorts using MiniDV cameras and non-linear video editing software, considered high-tech at the time. While in college, I learned, and expanded my knowledge of, Apple’s Final Cut Pro, which parlayed into a job with Apple, Inc. in 2006, teaching the entire Final Cut Studio software suite across Southern California. It was at this time that I also began editing feature-length work.
In ten years living in SoCal, I edited seven feature films, numerous national and regional commercials, industrial videos, music videos, government projects, short films, demo reels, and the list goes on. My first feature film sold to Lionsgate, my second premiered at Cannes Film Festival, and I have since received numerous accolades and awards, including two Telly Awards in 2013, a third in 2014, fourth in 2017, and a prestigious Producers Guild of America mentorship.
In 2020, I relocated to San Antonio where I continue to freelance in the production world, capture drone imagery, and spearhead all-thing-video in my role as Creative Alchemist at Ignite Veterinary Solutions.
