Tim Hintsala

Tim was born in Ohio in August of 1971. He has lived all over the United States including Michigan, Texas, Louisiana, Nebraska and currently resides in Kansas with his wife and son. He has been an artist most of his life beginning a study of blacksmithing, knife and sword making at the young age of sixteen. Since then he has moved on to create many sculptures in various mediums, metal works such as swords, medieval armor and knives, and has worked in making historical replicas and original art for medieval re-enactors, various films, art collectors, and stage productions. As an actor Tim specializes in a wide range of character based performances ranging from the absurdly comedic to the heights of seriously dramatic. Cutting his teeth with live performances and small productions beginning in 1985, he performed in various medieval festivals, and historical gatherings all across the U.S. until 2005. Since 2007 Tim has been concentrating on his film work with an emphasis on writing and directing primarily with his creative partner, Liam Owen, with whom Tim has formed a production company called Beaten Generation Productions.
