With almost 20 years of experience in performance on stage, Zach was introduced to film rather late in his career. Zach studied performance and vocal specialization at the University of Wisconsin Green Bay and starred in almost 20 productions in and out of the university. Before attending UWGB, Zach was already a published poet, an accomplished vocalist, improvisational coach, production director, and multiple award winning performance artist. While a student, Zach was awarded the Louis Ederman Scholarship for his participation and efficiency in multiple disciplines of performance and design. Having studied lighting design, set design and painting, makeup and wardrobe design, as well as engaging in behind the scenes carpentry, safety and construction, Zach found himself involved in every aspect of performance along with dance, music, as well as training in classical and contemporary acting. Multiple nominations for the JFK Center Irene Ryan Scholarship, and Excellence in Performance Awards from UWGB as well as the JFK Center for Performing Arts culminated in his pursuit into new avenues of the arts with professional work as a voice artist, writer and director. After moving to Milwaukee to pursue a professional career, Zach immediately found work as a set designer in the film Cucaranchula, written and directed by UWM's Kate Balsley. Staying true to his multiple aspect interests - Zach also starred in the film! Chicago borrowed Zach away from the state where he worked on the set of BOSS with Kelsey Grammar. Several stage productions and independent films brought Zach the desire to establish a working venue for artists in the midwest. He is proud to be involved with a feature that utilizes so many gifted artist's creative minds. Not a Hammer Productions LLC is the result of a lifetime of love for the arts and a new-found respect for the entertainment professionals all over the mid-west. |
