Ryan Munevar was born in Omaha, NE in 1979.
He started writing strange little stories at the age of 8.
When he was 12 he got a few books on scriptwriting and taught himself.
At 16 he got a GED, and moved to Southern California where he enrolled at Saddleback Community College for the Radio/TV/Film Program.
Immediately he began getting gigs as a PA, Grip, Post-Production Supervisor, etc…
At 20 he began his career as a Script Doctor and Line Producer.
Packaging multiple pilot projects, rewriting hundreds of horror and science fiction scenes, and the 24/7 lifestyle of making films in LA taught him a few clever tricks along the way.
Because of the extraordinarily cheap set up and operational cost in Michigan he opened Cinemagrid with the help of a few friends at the age of 30.
Now he teaches script writing classes and pre-production classes while shooting the Friday 4:20 Show, and prepping for “Cereal Land” a TV series of his own mad creation.
