Biography
Richard J. Bryer is a filmmaker based in Cleveland, Ohio. A recent alumnus of Cleveland State, Bryer has created numerous short films, including CHARGER, which was recently screened at the 49th Cleveland International Film Festival. Bryer is known for his project management, organization, and attention to detail both on and off screen. His hard work and dedication have been supported by crowdfunding efforts and recognized through numerous grants. His filmmaking journey began when he was eight years old, when he got his hands on his family’s camcorder and would make YouTube videos in his backyard. What started as a child recording his wildest imaginations turned into a passion for storytelling. Bryer’s films are rooted in a campy, child-like whimsy that inspires him to push the boundaries of the “do-it-yourself” mentality. The live-action adaptation of Josie and The Pussycats is his favorite film of all time.
