BIO
Stephen Boyer was born and raised in Los Angeles with an interest in filmmaking from quite a young age. As a child, he started making movies in his parents' backyard and knew very early on that he wanted his career to revolve around cinema. His pursuits led him to film school, where he focused his efforts into editing and the post-production process. After graduating and taking on a plethora of professional short-form projects, Boyer landed his first feature film as an editor in 2019 with The Boy Behind the Door, which had a successful festival run and was eventually released in 2021 by AMC Networks' Shudder streaming service.
Boyer has continued to foster positive collaborative relationships with numerous filmmakers in his career while always working to serve a project's story above all else. Boyer has also made a concerted effort to teach up-and-coming filmmakers whenever possible, in an attempt to demystify the industry and inspire optimism in cinema as an art form.
