Jason Lupish

Jason was born in Grimsby, a small town in Southern Ontario Canada. Since then he has lived in St Catharines, Ontario, the home of other celebrities such as 'Dave Thomas', Linda Evangelista, Ron Sexsmith, and Neil Peart. Jason attended the same high school as Peart, but obviously more than a few years afterwards. During his high school career he was less focused on making films and more focused on watching them and playing football. He played for the regional football all-star team, and even the Provincial team one year. In the winter of 1998, Jason was offered a scholarship to Graceland College in Iowa, and was excited to attend later that year in the fall. But in the early summer, just months before he was set to leave for Graceland College, while tackling another player he was injured and temporarily paralyzed. He suffered minor neck and back injuries. The injuries were not enough to stop him from living a normal life, but his days of playing football were over. Graceland offered to still give Jason the scholarship, but in a state of depression he declined. He decided that he would turn his focus to filmmaking, more professionally when in 1999, after graduating from West Park Secondary school, and immediately formed his own business Digital Dream Pictures, which produced several short length promotional videos for 97.7 htzfm's web site. In 2001, he turned his focus to the narrative form of film and directed a short length movie titled "At Midnight" which was well received by the online community in the spring of that year. In the winter of 2001, Jason starred in a short length video production, produced by Locked Out Entertainment, titled PUSH, in which he played a serial killer. Shortly thereafter, Digital Dream Pictures and Locked Out Entertainment joined together to form LOADD Studios, in order to produce the Full Length Motion Picture An All American Fairytale (2001). A movie which was produced by Lupish, and directed by Lupish, Christopher Carter, and Adam Jack. In the Summer of 2003 Jason was approached again by writers/directors Carter and Jack who asked him to help produce and co-fund the demonstration pilot for "4 Years To Life", a project that is now receiving acclaim from Canadian television and film professionals. In November 2003, Jason produced and was the Director of Photography for the short film "The Switch" directed by Award Winning Writer/Director Carey Lewis. About a month later, Lupish, Carter and 'Joe Gallo II' a writer/director from Toronto, created "Nocturnal" a feature film that will bring together the creativity of 7 different directors all on one project. Each director gets 10 mins to tell a story, and must do so with a list of rules. In March 2004, Jason became the first person in history to direct a Live-Action fully 3 dimension holographic commercial. It was for White Oaks Resort & Spa in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada, and featured 2 guests of the resort playing tennis, lifting weights eating dinner, etc. All the various activities one can enjoy while staying at White Oaks. Jason is currently prepping a few scripts for production in early to mid spring, and also directing a music video for the band PRI.
