David Bacon began his career in Los Angeles as an actor in his 20s.
After years of working on set as talent, he developed strong relationships with Directors and Directors of Photography (DPs).
One notable mentor was Tim Otholt, an award-winning DP and owner of Light Hollywood, who took David under his wing.
Through Tim's guidance, David gained comprehensive knowledge of production, camera operations, and lighting for film, commercials, and television.
Over time, David had the opportunity to collaborate with a number of talented industry professionals, including Nick Vallelonga, the Academy Award-winning writer and director.
David's career has been marked by a commitment to learning from these experiences and continually honing his craft.
In 2005, David established Film Chalet Productions and Post, marking the start of his venture into production. His talent and dedication were soon recognized; in 2008, he won the "Excellence in Filmmaking" award at the Action on Film Festival in Pasadena and earned a nomination for "Best New Director" at the Withoutabox Festival.
