Jason Ragosta started his career as a storyboard artist at a stop motion animation studio, called Wreckless Abandon Studios in East Granby, CT. From there he moved to San Francisco and worked at the Academy of Art University, first as a film equipment tech before managing a sound stage for Diane Baker (Actress; Marnie, Silence of the Lambs) for several years. Jason Ragosta was then fortunate enough to be hired on as an editorial office production assistant on Disney’s John Carter for a year, where he got a chance to see how big budget films are made and was able to work alongside some of his filmmaking heroes such as writer, director Andrew Stanton and the supremely talented concept artist, Ryan Church.

After John Carter, Jason Ragosta made the move into independent film by serving as a writer and director of photography on his friend Albert Lopez’s short film Love Hurts, followed by writing, directing, and shooting his own short film Boy in the Dark, which was a fictional story based on his childhood, inspired by the opening of a TEDx Talk he gave in 2015. Currently Jason is working on his first feature film, it’s a character driven post apocalyptic horror film called ZTV: The PreZerve. -Indie Activity.com
