Devin Shane Hylton

Devin Hylton was raised in the mountains of Ashcamp KY, and his creativity began to bloom, even before he could crawl. Always creative and always curious about everything and everyone around him, Devin won several statewide poster contests in Elementary School. This was only the tipping point, as Devin went on to work in many creative fields, including publishing several Graphic Novels from companies as diverse as Markosia Enterprises and Arcana Studios. Devin had a number of comic properties that were optioned for feature film development as well. As a child of the Eighties cinema and television, Devin’s creativity grew even more. The films of Steven Spielberg, David Lynch, Rob Reiner, Chris Columbus played an important part in his creative development. In addition, the massive influence of George Lucas and Star Wars, Richard Donnor’s Superman, the Cinematography of Geoffrey Unsworth and writing of Stephen King only laid down the foundation to what was to come. Devin strives to be creative, while never taking his eye off of the universal element that has grabbed everyone since cinema’s beginning, the human story. In The Repairman, Devin’s first feature, a father attempts to save his only child, while trying to repair the memories of his painful past, that may ultimately save her life.
