San Diego native Aaron David Roberts has been working in the film industry since his pre-teen years as a PA/Grip on his father's commercial production sets. After High School, Aaron started an ambitious multi-media company, Blue Vision Entertainment, focusing on discovering and promoting unknown and independent filmmakers, musicians, artists and photographers. He quickly learned many of his peers who found the company with him did not have the same drive and persistence as he did, and Blue Vision Entertainment focused on the one dimension of the company Aaron was running: film. Aaron created the world of 'The Cast Members' in spring of 2014. After an initial pilot completed that same year (under name The Blackshirts), Aaron and the team decided they loved the concept, but needed to retool the show to make it a viable property to sell. The Cast Members LLC. was created in June of 2015 in coordination with the shows newfound SAG New Media Status. Aaron headed up a casting sessions for nearly a completely new cast from the original 2014 pilot. Aaron the wrote, directed and produced The Cast Members crowdfunding promotional material filmed in fall 2015. After raising nearly $2,000 locally in the spring of 2016, Aaron and his 3 producing partners were able to pay off their loans for the initial pilot and start fresh for funding The Cast Members pilot episode. Filming throughout Fall/Winter 2016, the pilot was completed in early 2017 and released in June of the same year to over 500,000 views and an audience of nearly 3,500 fans on Facebook. Aaron used this momentum to propel his next project, Chartered. For Chartered, Aaron was determined to put together a 'Network Ready' project, from scratch, as an unrepresented filmmaker in his early 20's. With a bit of luck, a fantastic script, and a bunch of local investors and filmmakers, Aaron completed production on Chartered in August of 2018, working with award winning and veteran industry talent along the way. Aaron is now entering the final stage of his journey as an independent filmmaker: the sale.
