Atlanta native Bobby Huntley doesn’t see an end date in his future.Bobby Huntley is a director, producer, writer, and editor who began his journey as a filmmaker at the age of 10-years old. Upon seeing his knack for storytelling, his teachers began to encourage him to submit short films and mini-docs instead of written assignments. Since completing film school, Bobby has continued to study his craft and hone his voice as a filmmaker. He builds his brand and growing numbers of supporters by independently touring the country with his award-winning projects. Throughout his travels, he makes a point to speak at high schools and universities to give students a real in-depth look at indie filmmaking, both the highs and the lows. Bobby has faced homelessness, slept in airports and cars, as well as went through long days while only being able to afford one meal in order to travel with his films across the country. Through it all, he strongly stresses the importance of community and collaboration to effectively get stories told.

His upcoming project, Connect will make its premiere next month at the twenty-ninth annual Pan African Film Festival based in Los Angeles, founded by legendary actor Danny Glover. Tickets for the virtual screenings will be available at www.Paff.Org. His next endeavor is the feature film version of his tantalizing award-winning short film, Louisiana 1961.
