Kyle Shaw
Born in West Texas in 1975, Kyle is an actor, writer, stunt man, stunt driver, PA, AD, etc., etc. Growing up in small oil towns, all over The Midwest and The South, Kyle was a model student and a very good athlete. He excelled in every sport he played, which were many, ending up with him playing semi-professional football while at the same time, shooting action scenes for the film "Race To Witch Mountain" with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Through his youth, he was an avid hunter, dedicated fisherman and just a generally good, all around outdoorsman. Bicycles, motorcycles, four wheelers and horses were his preferred modes of transportation all through his youth. Of course, with his dad being an oil man and his Grandparents being farmers, there were always tractors, back-hoes and front loaders around. He was operating these machines at the age of eleven, and was gifted his first 12 gauge shotgun at the age of twelve. Things were different then. Kyle began pursuing his dream of acting in 2000 after being honorably discharged from the United States Navy in San Diego, California. He moved to Los Angeles in 2001. Kyle has studied the Meisner Technique with an understudy of Sanford Meisner, Method at The Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute and improvisation with different groups around town. Kyle has been the lead actor in several independent short films as well as a supporting character in a number of others. He has had small roles in quite a few tv shows and major movies, which about half of, have involved action, stunts, fighting and or shooting. He loves that stuff. He has been the principle actor in well over 20 tv commercials and has worked as a stunt driver/stunt man on a good number more. The answer is yes, you have seen him. Throughout his career, Kyle has had the privilege of working with top producers and directors such as Kathleen Kennedy, Michael Bay, Tom Dey, Fredrick Bond, McG, Andy Fickman and Marcus Nispel to name some. Not only has he worked in front of the camera, but Kyle has also worked behind it in the capacity of AD, PA, props, art department, set building, transportation, assistant camera, writer and more. He believes that the more you learn about the production of film and tv, the more it frees up the acting process and adds confidence in performance. A jack of all trades, Kyle draws from his many, real life experiences to relate and perform in the hopes of delivering a more natural and organic character portrayal while inciting an experience of emotion and feeling in his audience. Ladies and gentlemen... Kyle Shaw
