Kenneth Altman

Originally from Portland, Oregon Kenneth is a graduate of Benson Polytechnic High School. It was there, in a film appreciation class, that the first spark for his career in the production industry took place. Continuing his education at George Fox University in Newberg, OR Kenneth drew inspiration from the then new cable channel, MTV, creating a music video for The Receivers, a "new wave" band in which he played bass. The spark became a flame and he went on to earn a B.A. in Communication with emphasis on television production. A two-year stint teaching English in Japan gave Kenneth a wider perspective on the world and an opportunity to earn a "black belt" in Kendo. Returning to Portland, he got his first job in corporate video production - - camera operation, editing, sound editing, casting - - he had his fingers all over the pie. But when he got the chance to produce a show from start to finish he finally realized his calling. He packed up his young family and moved to Virginia where he attended Regent University, diligently pursuing a Master's degree in Producing for Cinema-Television. In addition to the classes and connections, Regent gave Kenneth the opportunity to produce his first short film, Byline, which won a few awards in student categories on the festival circuit. The years following graduation from Regent were filled with honing his skills in the freelance production world, working in corporate video, television and independent film. In 2012 Kenneth joined Cine'Foundry Entertainment as a Producer and in 2016 became Managing Producer of the company. Kenneth resides in Southeast Virginia, where he continues to develop and produce cinema and television projects.
