  • DENIS MINOR - Producer
    President of Blue Highway Productions

    Dennis has been involved in film and video production for over 30 years.  His career began in high school while living in Denver, Colorado. He was cameraman and occasional director on series of "backyard" short films that ran the gamut of concepts from love between 2 legless frogs abandoned outside a French restaurant to a satire on an African explorer who is captured and branded by a renegade gang of Gorillas. Due to a lack of funding, two of the "gorillas" were actually students in old fur coats.

    After a short detour in forestry college when he had visions of becoming a National Park Ranger guiding naive tourists into deadly encounters with rabid wildlife, he re-engaged the film production world.  It's been downhill since then.

    Dennis currently lives with his wife on the island nation of Malta after stints in Los Angeles, Portland Oregon and San Francisco.
