Randy Kent

Randy just wrapped production on a one-of-a-kind experiment - directing a feature film over Skype from Los Angeles that is shooting on location in Bangalore, India. The love-thriller, Road King, is breaking new ground in a number of ways and a 2017 release across Indian and US markets is planned. In 2011 Randy won a Silver Ace Award at the Las Vegas International Film Festival for the feature film, "Life Of Lemon". And recently won Best Director and a Best Feature award for the horror anthology, "The Perfect House". Before doing his own projects, Kent worked as a set decorator and P.A. on many commercials and independent films, one being for director Harris Goldberg (Deuce Bigalow, Without A Paddle). Kent gained more knowledge for his directing career when he got the chance to be a featured extra on Cameron Crowe's "Almost Famous". The experience allowed Kent the opportunity to watch a favorite director work with the actors for the two days. The lessons learned on the set proved an invaluable experience for Kent's budding directorial aspirations. Kent's additional industry experience includes working in the art department on various independent films as well as for promo spots running on Lifetime Television and W.E. Kent shot Bagboy Productions first feature film in the summer of 2002, entitled "Life, Death & Mini-Golf". The production was an entirely self-financed project and now sells on Amazon.com and various other sites. Filmed in only three locations over a 14-day period, this drama ensemble stars former "Saturday Night Live" cast member Kristen Wiig. Kent has written, produced, and directed numerous shorts, commercials and features in the past fifteen years, including the short "Timmy, The Bag Boy", which won the Audience Choice Award for "Best Short Film" in October 2008 at the Kern Projections Film Festival. It also screened at numerous festivals throughout California and the United States.
