Michael Cristian Greene is a Film Director and Writer. Michael was born
in Houston, Texas in 1985, the son of Cynthia Cristian and Ben Greene.
Growing up, Michael often lost himself in reading and writing fiction
stories. His childhood friends were subject to be the characters in his
stories which were later recorded with his parent's digital camera and
presented as short movies to family and friends. Although he
appreciated the different genres movies offered, Michael was most
influenced by epic adventures and other worlds in movies like
Braveheart, Aliens, Indiana Jones, and the original Star Wars. By 2003
Michael moved from Houston to attend the prestigious Texas A&M
University in College Station, Texas. During summer breaks, Michael
often traveled to Los Angeles for acting jobs which eventually inspired
him to look into writing and directing his own work. After three
successful internships with oil giant Shell, Michael reevaluated his
career path and decided to leave the corporate world to pursue the film
industry. In 2008, three days after receiving his bachelor's degree,
Michael packed as much as he could fit into his car and moved to Los
Angeles.
Since early 2003 Michael has collaborated with other industry creatives in films, commercials and advertisements. In 2011 he collaborated with Art Director/Producer Mia-Danica Jamora which eventually formed media production company - MSQUARE Productions. Since then they have collaborated with clients such as Microsoft, Rolling Stone and New York Life to name a few. In 2010 Michael began writing a fantasy action trilogy called, "The Alpha System". By 2011 to 2012 he began production for the prelude to the "The Alpha System" as the film's Director and Lead Producer. In early 2013 Michael worked on the romantic comedy "Isobel & The Patissier" as Director and Co-Producer. Later that year Michael took on the role of Director and Cinematographer for the psychological drama "Dreamstitching" a short he wrote alongside Art Director/Producer; Mia-Danica Jamora.
Michael's use of memorable characters, incorporation of magical or fantasy elements, distinct storytelling abilities and his imaginative childhood have been the driving force behind his passion for filmmaking and his love for entertainment.
Michael continues to work on film, commercial and creative campaigns. He divides his time between Sydney, Australia and Los Angeles, USA.
