  Actor, Director, Producer & Writer Sean Ray
  

  Born and raised in Topeka, Kansas, Sean Shuford has something many aspiring filmmakers and actors don't: a respect for management and organization. His first job as 1st Assistant Director was the full-length feature film, _Firecracker (2003/I)_, made by award-winning director Steve Balderson (Pep Squad). Physically and mentally strong, Sean was not only a key part of keeping the film on schedule, but he was also involved in every part of the film's creation, from being a personal trainer to the cast and crew, planning and constructing the enormous sideshow sets, and assisting the producers to appearing in the film as the carnie sidekick to infamous George the Giant (Tim Burton's Big Fish, HBO's Carnivale).
  
  A self-described workaholic, Sean's experience began working as a Sales rep and Manager for many large corporations such as PEPSI and Xerox. Singled out for his excellent customer service and outstanding organizational skills, Sean achieved major success before venturing out to pursue his goals of making films. Though he may seem too good to be true, it all comes very naturally to him. Since his work on Firecracker, other filmmaking teams are beginning to utilize his talents. He just completed work on Venom, an independent film by Brett Bower, working both behind the scenes and appearing in front of the camera.
  
  Driven and creative, Sean is currently developing Hole, a gripping mystery centered around a Midwestern family. And in November 2008 Sean signed on for the lead role of Detective Stephens for the feature film The Mortal Vampire, written and directed by the Top Dog host of Premium Views, E W Bradfute.
