HOW HE GOT INVOLVED WITH FILMKID:
Back in high school a young sophomoric Brian Dieck joined the Movie Club which at the time was being run by a tyrannical Glen. Through dealing with their Digital Media teacher and editing his sons’ basketball games on a grossly outdated version of Avid together Glen and Brian became friends and started a whirlwind affair, often meeting up in the photography lab’s dark room for their illicit rendezvous.
When Brian contacted Glen a few years later in college to reconnect they started talking about Several Ways to Die Trying and as shooting grew nearer and nearer Brian’s involvement became more and more integral to the project. Despite daily arguments and verbal abuse by Glen during filming and editing of the movie Brian has stuck it out and cemented his role as Filmkid’s go-to guy when it comes to the technical end of things.
