Ever since he learned what a movie was, he has dreamed of making them. Fortunately, it didn’t take long for that dream to become a reality. Michael started acting and directing at an early age, even teaching himself how to edit. From the early days of using a paper-towel roll to scroll credits, all the way through mastering Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere, his passion has never left. Michael almost single-handedly ran his high school’s television studio; anchoring the show each morning and creating more skits and short films than anyone else in the studio’s history. \nMichael then went on to receive his bachelor’s degree from St. John’s University and also took graduate courses at Kean University to further his knowledge.\nAfter school, Michael stepped directly into the global spotlight thanks to his role in orchestrating the viral sensation known as the “Staten Island Clown.” Beyond that, Michael has directed many short films, commercials and music videos leading up to his feature debut, “Abnormal Attraction”, the comedy/fantasy starring silver screen icons such as Malcolm McDowell, Gilbert Gottfried and Academy Award nominee Bruce Davison.\n\nOutside the entertainment world Mike enjoys adding to his collection of ‘Leprechauns’ and playing football with his childhood friends, all while rooting for his favorite team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He also continues a family tradition along with his brother Jason of creating a huge Halloween display for their neighborhood, which was originally started by their mother and grandfather and has gotten national attention throughout the years.\n\nFind Michael and Fuzz On The Lens online: \nhttps://fuzzonthelens.com/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/FuzzOnTheLens\nhttps://www.instagram.com/fuzz_on_the_lens/\nhttps://twitter.com/fuzzonthelens\nhttps://www.instagram.com/leavisisland/\nhttps://www.instagram.com/streamfranchise/\nhttps://www.facebook.com/StreamFranchise\n\nDo not miss Rich’s book, \"Confessions of a Frenetic Mind\" available now - https://www.amazon.com/Confessions-Frenetic-Mind-Blood-Curdling-Terror/dp/1946577103/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=Rich+Cyr&qid=1667737186&sr=8-1\n\nCopyright 2023 The Claw’s Corner - Produced by Rich Cyr https://www.facebook.com/richtheclawcyr/ \n\nEdited by Elmwood Productions - http://elmwoodproductions.com/index.html and subscribe to Elmwood Productions on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ElmwoodProductions/featured\nShow some love for Elmwood!
