Stuart's pursuit of feature film directing began in the sixth grade when he was awarded the first place prize for a video project, produced for an English class. Realizing his hobby of movies could actually become a career path, Stuart went on to direct, produce, and edit a feature film, shot on video, as a senior in high school. Stuart graduated Boston University where he directed several short films. After attending the 1999 Sundance film festival, his latest film entitled Bobby Loves Mangos (1998) earned the accolade of film critic Roger Ebert as well as many throughout the Hollywood film industry. Stuart signed a distribution deal for "Bobby Loves Mangos" with Atomfilms, and his film has been sold to various companies including The Sci-Fi Channel, HBO, and United Airlines. Currently, Stuart is represented by The Writers & Artists Agency. Stuart has penned several screenplays, and is the process of securing financing for his first feature film. Stuart also directs commercials for clients such as Phillips, Porsche, and his most notable spot "Super Absorbant", which was featured in Fox's "the best commercials you'll never see" segment starring supermodel Shalom Harlow (Currently the new GAP girl).As mentioned in recent press, Stuart has also completed his very first music video for the band "Powder" that was recently picked up on MTV, marking the first spec music video in history to air on the network. The video was also recently voted #1 on the Much Music Network. The project stars Jay Mewes (Jay and Silent Bob, Clerks, Dogma), and Ahmet Zappa. As a result, Stuart has joined the roster of well-respected Commercial Production House Picture Park, set to launch their Music Video division in the new year. Hide
