As a Producer and Actor, please introduce yourself.

My name is Robert Sciglimpaglia. I am an actor, producer and attorney. My best known project to date is the Super Bowl commercial 

"Happy Grad" by Chevy. I have appeared on national tv several times, and in many films.

Why you became a filmmaker as producer?

As an attorney I represented, and still represent, many film makers. I learned the business side of things very well in doing so. 

 As an artist, I wanted to expand the parts I was playing because I was getting called in for the same parts over and over 

(Lawyer, Doctor, stock broker, office worker). So, I started looking for scripts with parts I could do and that I could produce on my own. 

 So, that's what I have done. I have produced 4 shorts, all award winners, and have my first feature in editing right now.

Give some more information about yourself and the films you have produced or acted so far, about your experience?

I have acted in many features and shorts in every role from background/U5 to lead. I learned a lot from doing background work 

at the beginning of my career and I got to witness many of the greats practicing their craft. 

 (Hugh Grant, Drew Barrymore, Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe, Susan Sarandon, Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, etc). 

 I now incorporate much of what I have learned into my own performances in films I produce, and those I work on.
