Stan Main
For more than three decades, Stan’s career has had him spreading messages far and wide. He got his start as a film student at UT Austin and Austin Film Works. He also studied radio at UT El Paso. He’s worked as a radio programmer. A researcher. A marketer. And today, a radio station consultant for The Randy Lane Company.
StanOh yeah, and he makes movies. A lot of movies.
Stan, who lives in Brighton, NY, is the founder of and chair of Rochester Movie Makers, a local nonprofit educational cooperative that helps people interested in every aspect of making films get involved in local projects.
Stan’s philosophy is to “learn by doing,” and he certainly walks the talk.
Among his recent projects is the short film “Threads,” a touching look at the intergenerational connection of a grandmother, mother and daughter. The film was part of Movie Makers Summer Shorts 2009 project.

In another short, “Death and Taxes,” shot in black and white, a tax meeting goes horribly wrong.

“Great politicians that do the right thing,” he says, adding, “Great filmmakers, great actors, great writing, achievers in general.”
Stan will be producing/crewing on three new short films this summer as part of Movie Makers Summer Shorts 2010 project: “Summer View” from Donna DePalma, “Thou Shall Not Steal” from Paul Vonasek, and “The Red Lunchbox” from John Centrone.
