Brian L. Tan 'BLT' started out as a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic kid who moved more times than he could remember. After living around the world and graduating from UCLA, he launched WRAPAL, the film industry's first entertainment technology startup that connected filmmakers to film locations (think AirBnB for film).
On top of his entrepreneurship, he has worked in Visual Effects on studio features such as Tron: Legacy, X-Men First Class, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and Jack the Giant Slayer, whilst pursuing his own independent films, commercials, and documentaries on the side.
He has directed a few viral videos, was a Top 20 finalist on HBO's Project Greenlight, and has achieved a few festival wins including Conde Nast's Best Travel Video. His directing has taken him around the world, to more than 110 nations where he has had the chance to see first hand
the ideas and elements that inspire, console, entertain, and unite the people all over the world.
His goal is to tell stories about people and products that reach across borders and ignite passions and imaginations. The most human stories are often the most explosive, which is exactly how he likes to tell them.
